A Russian Su-27 fighter plane collided with a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone over the Black Sea on Tuesday, a U.S. defense official told Fox News.
The jet in question was one of two Su-27โs flying in tandem when the collision occurred in international airspace over international waters. The droneโs propeller was damaged, forcing the unmanned aerial vehicle to ditch in the Black Sea, west of Crimea, the U.S. defense official told Fox News.
The State Department is summoning Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Anatoly Antonov to express its โstrong objectionsโ to the intercept, spokesman Ned Price confirmed to reporters.

it's only logical to shut down an opponent's UAV. He might be a general in the Air Force, but he must be a noob private in the Call of Duty.
go putin how close wasit to russia and the US crash it not russia what a lier
Turns out flying military machines near warzones, when you're actively aiding one of the participants in said war zone, tends to cause issues.
Yes Russia has the drone. Yes mq.9 is a reaper and it was armed. And yes it was not over international waters. He looks very panicked that russia now have the latest tech. Big trouble for the usa
Boooooo…. Shame on u uncle SAM ๐
When that same drone killed Iranian general it was professional, when Russian plane pushed the drone to crash it is unprofessional.
This guy actually surpasses my Fauci scale for projectile vomiting. What happened was the US was being stupid and got whacked. We remember the 9/11 lies buddy, you were training for the very event you failed to defend us from. Now quit talking and show us actual video of the AEV getting owned. You guys downed it Russia owned
it. LOL
Oh now this is international air space hahaha taking data on the Crimea ..๐๐ shooting a balloon now Russia blast off your spy drone.
Russian pilots shot drone down,"o its not professional", seriously?)
So your telling me the Biden administration is letting Russia bully us and ruin our equipment!? Them downing our drone is an act of war and we should be on our way to level Russia with quickness.
Verey good
For obvious reasons.
Russia and China are working together against the United States. This drone attack was in retaliation to the Chinese spy baloon being shot down over the United States
We need to retaliate; they need be punished, or they will continue.
Bla,bla,bla. This is a spy drone,the water is 5000 feet. The water pressure would crush it,so get a grip. It's a war zone u fools.
Ooh you naughty Russians, you've broken one of our drones, I'm going to tell my mum (mom for septics) about you.
Any Russian drone is a target for NATO to capture is now how I see it
Pentagon response;NOTHING JUST A JOKE. Russia is laughing at you.
BLA BLA BLA That friken drone was intentonaly downed, no matter how mucho retoric this retardeded invest to say it in other words๐ฆง.
Why they wanna kill us…??๐ข I vote no on new world order
Russia need to remember who is the boss just saying
What about if Rusia send a Dron close to Florida?..US is the mother of hypocrisy.and Zelensky a corrupt clown.
We should be flying balloons over them. Much cheaper if they bring one down. China has already figured that out. And you can always say it was a test balloon.
Little by little, the Russians are trying the US (because they can). Maybe someone ought to piss on the Russian jets – especially in front of the (nacelle) inlets
How many people are asking exactly what was our US drone doing in the Black Sea, speeding towards Russian territory??
What if Russia sends their drone into "International Airspace" racing towards our US territory??
a person who uses many epithets says that he is lying
