The Aviationist: A new Russian spyplane skirted the airspace of eastern Ukraine today
A new Russian Air Force Tu-214R could be tracked as it flew close to the border with Ukraine.
Social media are going frenzy after a Russian Air Force Tu-214R was spotted and tracked on the Internet, by means of its ADS-B transponder signals detected by Flightradar24 collecting stations, as it flew from Kazan to Crimea and back, closely following the border between Russia and Ukraine on Jun. 18.
Built by the Kazan Aircraft Production Association’s (KAPO) and flown from the company’s airfield, the Tu-214R registered RA-64514, serial number 42305014, is the second of the two examples of this kind of aircraft built under contract with Russia’s Ministry of Defense.
WNU Editor: I have always been a big fan of Flightradar24.com. The Aviationist is also correct that if you want to know where Putin is, you can use Flightradar24.com to track his "doomsday" plane .... Putin’s Doomsday Plane circling near Finland for third day in a row as he visits his spiritual mentor (The Aviationist). On a side note, the Aviationist made the remark that Putin has a "spiritual mentor" .... as to who is that spiritual mentor .... Zero Hedge covers that in this post.
