Photographs of F-16C Viper fighter jets assigned to the U.S. Air Force's 18th Aggressor Squadron at Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska armed with live AIM-120 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles, or AMRAAMs, and AIM-9X Sidewinders have emerged online. Separately, the Air Force has all but confirmed to The War Zone that aggressor F-16s were used to intercept two Russian Tu-95MS Bear bombers after those aircraft entered the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone earlier this week. The crews of those Bears may well have been confused to see jets sporting elaborate camouflage and Russian-style red bort numbers pull alongside them.
