Theresa May’s ‘mission accomplished’ moment? PM thanks UK troops for ‘crushing’ ISIS
British Prime Minister Theresa May’s plane was involved in the exercise as military chiefs decided to see how quickly they could respond to a make-believe threat.

May was able to watch the mock-intercept from the cockpit as she arrived in UK-controlled skies, following a trip to Cyprus.

The jets came within 25 meters of May’s RAF Airbus Voyager to show off their air-to-air weapons systems, pulling up with wings tipped at 320mph.

May had been in Cyprus after the defeat of ISIS in Iraq, which RAF troops have been involved in from RAF Akrotiri.

At the base – which hosts 3,000 personnel and families – May called them the “pride of the nation.”

She then praised the RAF jets which flew from RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire to meet her, applauding their “unique skill.”

On board though, the PM was playing Sudoku and reading The Incredible Crime novel, part of the Cambridge mysteries series.

Her journey on the Prime Minister’s RAF Airbus Voyager was lengthened by around one hour as a result of the exercise.

The RAF has enough practice in launching against Russian planes. Two jets were scrambled to intercept a pair of Russian bombers off the coast of Scotland in September.

They took off from the Lossiemouth base in Scotland on Wednesday to monitor the aircraft heading towards a UK “area of interest.”

At the time, Russia’s Defense Ministry said it was surprised so much attention was being paid to a routine flight.

“All flights by Russian military aircraft are carried out in strict compliance with international regulations on the use of airspace over neutral waters, without violating the borders of other countries," Major General Igor Konashenkov said.

One of the Su-30SM pilots who covered Vladimir Putin’s plane on his recent trip to Syria opened up on the mission. The jets were “heat traps” ready to take possible enemy missiles upon themselves, he said.
“In this case, the task was to meet [the Russian President’s plane] and escort it to the landing strip,” a pilot named Yury told a Rossiya 1 correspondent at the Russian Khmeimim airbase in western Syria. “One of the tasks was to hereby cover it with ourselves, roughly saying,” he added.

According to the ace, the Su-30SM jets were a sort of “heat traps” for missiles that could’ve been fired at Putin’s plane. “The temperature of the exhaust gases of the (Su-30SM) plane is much higher” than of presidential Il-96-300PU, he said. “We were flying at maximum capacity because our planes have different speed and it was that we were protecting the presidential plane from both sides with ourselves,” the pilot added.

The footage of Putin looking at the maneuvers of the Russian military pilots from aboard his plane earlier this week has gone viral. The president thanked the airmen for their courage during his annual Q&A session on Thursday.

“The pilots, those guys, I watched them. They were not just flying nearby – during landing, they descended to be flying below our plane," Putin said. "I am thankful to them and want them to hear and know that.”

On Monday, Putin arrived in Syria without any advance notice to visit Khmeimim Airbase in Latakia province and order the withdrawal of Russian troops after the defeat of terrorists in the country.
