Soviet Bombers Challenge U S Air Defenses
Soviet bombers periodically breach the U S air space off Alaska testing defenses and are intercepted by U S warplanes. An Air Force spokesman said the planes fly 20 to 360 miles from the coast over the Bering Sea during reconnaissance flights since 1958. Elmendorf AFB conducts intercepts and identifies the Badgers or Bears without overflying land.
