PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE — The U.S. and Russia, which have more bluster than cooperation in their often-contentious history, will have their jet fighters take turns pursuing a civilian plane across the Pacific next week in an exercise to test response to an international hijacking.
Aircraft and officers from Russia and the North American Aerospace Defense Command will track the executive-style jet as it plays the role of a hijacked civilian airliner. The three-day exercise is scheduled to start Sunday in Alaska.
