Rare footage of a meeting over the Barents Sea between a Russian Il-38 anti-submarine aircraft and a Norwegian P-3C Orion reconnaissance patrol aircraft. The planes flew nearby for some time, after which the P-3C Orion went to the side.

Russian Tu-95MS strategic missile carriers and Chinese Xian H-6K bombers conducted a joint patrol over the Chukchi and Bering Seas, as well as over the northern part of the Pacific Ocean. During the flight, Russian and Chinese crews in a new area of joint operations worked out issues of interaction at all stages of air patrol. Air cover for the aircraft was provided by Russian Su-30SM and Su-35S fighters. In the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone, the Russian aircraft were accompanied by US Air Force F-16 and F-35 fighters and Canadian CF-18 fighters. The duration of the joint flight of Russian and Chinese aircraft was more than 5 hours.
