"A US surveillance aircraft was twice ‘buzzed’ by a Russian fighter over the Black Sea in what the Pentagon says was an ‘unsafe and unprofessional’ manoeuvre.  The Russian warplane reportedly closed the distance with the large Aries before activating its afterburner. It then accelerated into a banking turn, directing the turbulence generated by its engines at the US aircraft."

I know this is no laughing matter, but it always amuses me, when news media uses euphemisms like “surveillance aircraft” - just say it was a spy plane.
