text: This is the dramatic moment two Typhoons came into land above an astonished father and son. The video captured by William Bird while out with his seven-year-old stepson Alex shows the £126million jets approaching RAF Lossiemouth in Moray, Scotland. The first of the aircraft - which can reach 1,370mph - blasted them with the thrust from its engines, while as the second jet disappeared from view the video camera was knocked sideways.

Overhead: As the second jet disappeared from view in the clip, the video camera was knocked sideways . The video was taken on the same day that Typhoons were deployed by the Royal Air Force as two Russian long-range Bear bombers, capable of carrying nuclear missiles, hugged British airspace. Mr Bird, who runs an aerial photography business in Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, captured the video on Tuesday with a Go Pro 4 while on holiday with his family. The 41-year-old said that he was ‘as close to the action as you could get’, having gone to the area after hearing on the news that Nato exercises were taking place in the area. He said: ‘I went to see what I could capture. I wasn't really sure what I would get but it was fantastic watching the video back. ‘They came in very low and were preparing to land, but they were still under quite a lot of throttle. To see that much thrust is quite astonishing. My stepson is still making jet noises.’ He added: ‘It's the first time I've seen a Typhoon in flight and the noise was just incredible.

'You can hear it approach from far away, but when it's above you have to fight every instinct not to duck or put your hands over your ears. ‘Shortly after taking this video we were actually told we should probably move a bit away since the planes were coming in to land.’ As well as the bombers on Tuesday, a Russian warship strayed close to UK territory in another apparent attempt to test Britain’s defences. A destroyer with missiles, anti-aircraft guns and torpedoes entered the English Channel with two other Russian ships. It forced the UK to send a heavily-armed frigate to monitor the vessels. Just a few hours later the Bear bombers hugged UK airspace. Sources claim both incidents may have been an attempt to ‘snoop’ on the Nato war games exercise taking place in Scotland. Even though Russian military inspectors were invited to attend the show of strength, the timing raised suspicions that Vladimir Putin was using access to the site to test UK reaction times. It later emerged that the Russians had actually been at the Typhoons’ base at RAF Lossiemouth when the warplanes were scrambled.
