Probably a hunter, which is what I assume these dudes were doing. I mean...how can we be certain that isn't something else anyways. I'm no expert in russian planes though...

The cold was is still going in. just more of a trade war and a sphere of influence war. I think Russia is pissed we are all up in their junk in their former countries and allies.
