Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I roto i te nekehanga me nga oro kino o te Pakanga Makariri, he jet whawhai a Ruhia i 'kino' i tetahi rererangi Amerika i runga i a Poland, e kii ana te Pentagon. I te whakatakoto amuamu ā-ture ki a Rūhia, e kī ana te Tari Kawanatanga he waka rererangi mataaratanga a U.S. RC-135U e rere ana i te taha o te Moana Baltic i roto i te rohe rererangi o te ao i te wa i whati ai te Russian SU-27 Flanker i tana huarahi. Kua whakahē ngā rangatira o te Pentagon i te nekehanga hei 'kore ngaio' me te 'kore haumaru'. He jet Russian 'kino' intercepted te US RC-135U rererangi (whakaahua) i runga i Poland, te Pentagon kerēme. I kii te kaikorero a Mark Wright ki a CNN i whakahaerehia e te jet a Ruhia nga 'whakamekemeke whakaeke' i te tere tere i te taha tata o te rererangi. I tapiritia e ia ka tukuna e te Tari Kawanatanga he amuamu ki a Ruhia'ma te huarahi taapori'. Kua whakakahoretia e Rūhia ngā kerēme he whakatārewatanga āta whakaaro, ā, āta whakaeke hoki. I kii te tari korero a Sputnik e kii ana ko te jet e karapoti ana i te rererangi ki te whakatau i tana nama hiku, i te mea kua whakaweto tana transponder. Ko te Russian SU-27 Flanker i 'kino' ki te huarahi o te rererangi o Amerika, i kii te kaikorero. Kua whakakahoretia e te Pentagon me te US European Command te kaute. I puta te kaupapa tata tonu ki te kotahi tau i muri mai i te whakapae a nga apiha o te Pentagon i te rererangi rererangi a Ruhia mo te rere i te 100 waewae i mua o te ihu o te rererangi tutei a Amerika i runga i te Moana o Okhotsk i waenga o Ruhia me Japan. I te marama o Akuhata o te tau kua hipa, i karo te rererangi tutei a te US Air Force i te tukinga ki te ope taua o Ruhia i runga i te rangi o Sweden.
I rere atu te waka rererangi a U.S. RC-135U ki te taha o Poland i te wa i 'whakaheke' ai te jet Russian E ai ki te Pentagon, i mahi nga SU-27 Flanker a Ruhia i nga 'whakamatautau kino' E kī ana a Rūhia i whakamātau rātau ki te tautuhi i te waka rererangi mā te porowhita i a ia.
