The US military's European Command has released footage of the encounter between a US surveillance drone and Russian fighter jets over the Black Sea. The newly declassified video depicts critical moments of the mid-air encounter, which the Pentagon said lasted 30-40 minutes. #CNN #News
Fighter pilots don’t “accidentally” hit other aircraft.
@Duck of Death I’m disgusted at my US government for allowing ANY of this. If Ukraine had some oil under it Putin would have been hanging months ago.yall see what we did to Saddam
They were dumping fuel on it, failing to do so. Tried to get closer, then hit it on accident.
@Frank Dezso it took two su 27 … to mess with an unmanned drone !! It took the USSR pilots , 19 passes … 19 times on a slow straight trajectory unmanned drone …then the pilot pulled up too soon and hit it !! Lmao !! And you want a dog fight !! Omg !! That’s funny
they didn’t hit it
It was not Russia who did it, the drone fell out a window.
Thats funny ..
@KLT you need to understand jokes
@KLT I believe it was a joke. There have been lot’s of Gas Prom executives, Russian oligarchs, and potential rivals of Putin whom have (conveniently) fallen out of windows or experienced unusual deaths lately.
You win
@Brad Mahoney 👍🙏🇳🇴❤️
Reaper needs to add a couple of flares that can be released when Russian jets try to pee on it again. Sorry Putin, must have been an electrical short.
That would most likely be a declaration of war, which we don’t need.
@Reaperr™ they saying at if not winning begins 3 world war or will use atom and we all in heaven for them everything finished trying others damage he began for that everything he wanta world
@Reaperr™ if you know russian listen them
@Reaperr™ nah, it’s a defensive measure that shouldn’t be able to damage another aircraft. Sort of like dumping fuel on an unspecting little drone minding its own business in international airspace just seeing the sites.
when u ran out of missiles in war thunder lmao
Russians: let’s down their drone without firing a missile
Americans: hey we think this was intentional but we’re not sure lol
@Haldogo it was a recon mission why tf would they put missiles on it? They don’t put $150,000 missiles on it for recon missions.
@D didn’t have a reason before, do now, fighters cost much more than that. What do you think the US uses to attack terrorist. Drones with missiles on them, FYI
@Haldogo you have no idea what you are talking about.
@D you’re absolutely right, but it’s not me. Do about 3 minutes of research. Why do you think they call them a platform, depends on what they’re using the drones for genius
Drone was attacked by “pro russian” forces
Meanwhile, a Chinese balloon was watching everything go down.
A pandemic uighur balloon
Hahahahaha
🤣💯👌🏻
😂
😂😂😂
Thank goodness the drone was defenceless on a steady course. Russian pilot was lucky that he never went down when he misjudged the distance.
@Good Guys jet fuel (kerosene) caused damage to the camera? So how did we see the video genius? 😅😂🤣
@Traiano Wellcome sure he was aiming for one prop not trying to knock it down 😂 watta 🤡
@Droid User that’s what your LGBTQ media said, in reality there probably wasn’t any impact at all or else you’d see it on the video which you don’t since it’s cut short of anything
Russia lied, oh my that can’t possibly be 🙄
Let’s fly 1000 drones all armed and let’s see how fast they try to dispatch jets
It’s not amazing, it’s embarrassing for the U.S.
Explain to me how is that embarrassing???
They should have it explode and remotely self destruct it just as the jet was next to it that fuel would help too. 😂 Tell the Russians your plane crashed when it hit our drone 😅
@God’s Soldier they lost their most advanced drone and the enemy took it out in a hilarious fashion.
Someone needs to get rid of the bad rulers out there! What good is this for humanity?
@michelle quinn lol lizards. Cold blooded yah, but Lizards? why you gotta go and disrespect Lizards like that! Love those little dudes.
@Mr.Ch4rli3_ lol yeah so do I ,used to own a 4 ft water dragon. Ok then let’s call them SWINE or do you have a pet pig too???? Lol
and that needless “Dump of fuel in the Sea.” Polluters!!
@arkeyn Agree!
Russia wrongly identifed it as a Boeing 777
@storm shadow as an Asian I declared that’s funni
Bro I just watched the docu series of mh 370
RIP MH370. We now know the truth.
@storm shadow Korean airlines flight 007 or KAL 007 had US Congressman on the airplane when the Boeing 747 was accidentally shot down by the Russian Air Force
Oof
Send a 32 million dollar bill to Russia.
@E Hassan 😂😂Let’s hope the USAF doesn’t figure out that they could just get their DJI drones on Amazon (like Ukraine) and put out local industry out of work!
@Jevaunne Headley I guess if the Russian news keeps telling you that, eventually you start believing it.
60 million actually
I’m just hoping an American jet doesn’t hit a Russian drone over the Gulf of Mexico.
Russians with drones?
@Kris Hurlburt 😂🤣😆👍🏻
That’s like getting caught stealing on Cops…and got caught on camera. Duhh. 🥴
well, we blew up their pipeline. The least they could do is vandalize, then bring down a drone.
The propeller of that drone was not just damaged, but it also changed the yellow stripes. The CGI guy had one job… ONE job!
USA : MILLION DOLLAR MISSILE to BALOON
RUSSIA : FUEL DUMP to MILLION DOLLAR DRONE
Apparently the drone was ” harassed” by the Russian Jets.
Poor drone.
Hope it’s feelings weren’t hurt too much !
