Anyone see the orb following the Russian jet?
That's an act of aggression , but so is arming Ukraine.
Let's focus on the reason why the drone flew without turning on its transponder.
Because it was trying to spy on the Russian military position in Ukraine so that they can relay the intelligence to the Ukrainians.
And Us claimed that it was not a party to the conflict ?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
It makes my toes laugh at such BS !
No unpersoned military robot deserves to be bullied like that. It didn’t even know what it was doing there. For shame.
Military Techtual Harrasment
A Russian jet? And nobody thought to assume he was drunk? And he's piloting a flying Yugo, it's bound to have a leak or two…or three.
The U.S given Russia all these excuses. I'm convinced Putin has more heart than President and White House. They are scared of Putin.
What about not upsetting the US, for a change?
Go back to your country 😅, why are those drones flying so far from the US border?
I am not sure that the plane is dumping fuel. That is him hitting the afterburners. I also didnt see much of a collision. The drone would of been heavily damaged unless secondary footage was from prior to collision. I can see as a result of jets flying so close the turbulence knocked it offline or into the ocean. Yes pilots are flying agressively. Also they need to be aware that approach can easily lose track of a small thing like a drone. But the US failed to address if we play international water card, then why were transponders off as per international rules. We need to back off flying so close to Russian territory. There is no need!
The drone is not in the US and you guys blame the Russians? Who is the aggressor??? Just another typical US hypocritical reporting.
Ned is probably with out a job now.
Ionized Cesium laced jet fuel to scramble sensors and controls?
They have a caveman flying that jet
I don't see debris.It doesn't look clipped at all.Fuel may vapor lock the engine but the clipping claim looks to be more lies.The shaking is from the shockwave of the jet passing.Clipping would probably destroy the jet as well.
People have no idea what's going on and what has been going on in the world for the last 3 years.
That set
How do you unintentionally attack another vehicle?
Freedom for Ukraine from Russian terrorists, Russia should be isolated from the whole world((
could not have gone unanswered, everything was recorded on camera, this can be used as evidence in an international tribunal
