βοΈABC NEWS: Russia expert Matthew Sussex from the Australian National University points out in The Conversation, Russia's long range military planes can "easily travel over 10,000 kilometres."
"From a base in Indonesia, this would give the Russian air force the ability to conduct intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions during Australian military exercises, gather data on military installations in the Northern Territory (which also host US Marines), and even conduct surveillance on US military activities in Guam," he said.
"Equally, given the closeness of ties between Beijing and Moscow, any Russian intelligence that was gathered could be shared with China," Mr Sussex said.
Some analysts argue that a permanent or rotating presence of Russian planes that could monitor (or in a worst case scenario, even strike) Australian and US military assets in this region would present Moscow with plenty of options and opportunities.
It would also present what one former senior Australian official called it a "nightmare scenario" for Australian defence planners who are already grappling with the full implications of China's unprecedented partial circumnavigation of the mainland earlier this year.
Former ASPI head and senior Defence bureaucrat Peter Jennings also sees evidence of collusion between Moscow and Beijing.
"It is very much in China's interests to see Russian strategic bombers an hour's flight from US military bases in Guam," he wrote.

βοΈSBS News accuses Russia of "hijacking" the Australian Federal Election campaign:
"David Andrews, senior manager for policy engagement at the Australian National University's National Security College, has been monitoring the unfolding story and said Russia seeking to use the base is plausible.
Russia has been a constant presence throughout the Australian election campaign, although very much in the background, until now.
Russia is notorious for its disinformation, its misinformation, for its obfuscation, for its denying obvious realities.
"It's actually in some ways in their interests to be a bit obtuse and to not give a clear answer, because that means that we keep on second-guessing ourselves, that we get, sort of get in our own heads," Andrews said."
πPS. Russia literally did nothing - this whole story was made up by Australian politicans, spread by them then debunked by them. How is Russia to blame? What a joke!
