Ukraine’s shock drone strike on Russia’s strategic bomber fleet this week has generals and analysts taking a new look at threats to high-value United States aircraft at bases in the homeland and abroad – and the situation is worrisome.

The Russian attacks come after President Donald Trump likened the two sides to children on a playground who needed “to fight for a while.”
