I agree they were sending a message, but I hardly think it deserves a return of cold war thinking. Russia isn't about to attack the USA, they are just banging their chests and making some noise so the rest of the world know they are there. Plus i'm sure they are not the only counry in the world that sends military units to the boarders of other sovereign countries. I find it a bit ridiculous the negative spin the paper put on the story is all.
ie: It finishes with this...

It is worrying the amount of noise they have been making lately, claiming territory in the Arctic and all. But this story is nothing to be alarmed at.
