Russian President Vladimir Putin's aircraft was escorted by Russian Air Force Su-35 fighter jets on his trip to the UAE, with the Al-Dhafra Air Base, a significant US military installation, located nearby. In a surprising twist, a video posted online showed that the Russian presidential aircraft was also escorted by an Iranian Air Force F-14 Tomcat, a US-made aircraft.
