A lot of people don't realize that Russias longest Border is shared with Canada.
Debateable whether the F-18s could intercept russian aircraft now. Our odds of detecting them until after they have already entered our air space is pretty low.
If they do enter our airspace, I expect American pilots will get there first.
Well they are identified well before entering Canadian air space… the whole northern coast has radars with a range of 200 miles. I would think there are F18’s postured up north now with what is going on with Russia instead of just in Bagotville and Cold Lake.
