A Russian fighter jet has collided with a US unmanned aircraft in international airspace over the Black Sea, causing the latter to crash.
“Our MQ-9 aircraft was conducting routine operations in international airspace when it was intercepted and hit by a Russian aircraft, resulting in a crash and complete loss of the MQ-9,” said US Air Force General James Hecker.

More than ever, we need to join forces and assist Ukraine in finding a solution to its Russian conflict. Ukraine can only triumph over Russia with the complete reclamation of its territory and access to state-of-the-art weapons.
All Lies.
America trying to cause a War in Europe
And no damage to SU-27 by that propeller…really!!!!!!
Are people so dumb to believe that non sense
Russia should fly a drone in international waters past Long Island. Lets see how America reacts to that.
Russia should be isolated from the entire civilized world. This country has no place among democracy and freedom of speech.
Word on the street is that the Russian pilots were listening to don’t fear the reaper by Blue Öyster Cult 😂!! 🎸
No fighter jet hit any drone, as a pilot I know that didn't happen, if anything the Russian pilots flew a safe distance and the drone operator lost control from the turbulence of the jets in close proximity and crashed ,
This warrants a nuclear strike on Moscow in my opinion
How bad must the weapons systems be on Russian fighters, that they need to dump fuel on or ram other aircraft to bring them down?
Now it has been proven that Russian shot down the US drone. So SKY news has created fake news again.
Why was an American drone in the Black sea (Russia's coastline)? Russia has every right to down that drone.
Skillful Russian pilots makes Top Gun pilots look like amateurs
Never ending just when a Planat and all humans is died!!! Not late thinking and real chances!!!! 😢
The only way to stop Russia is to support Ukraine. Obviously, they can defeat the orcs
Comrade Putin ❤
American got caught with its pants down again ! Trying to be sneaky turning transponder off so the drone couldn’t be tracked!
They are meant to declare that they are in international airspace but they tried to be sneaky.
But they are not fighting a Proxy War !! 🤡🌎
Why is a US drone flying over the Black Sea? International waters or not it has no right to be there unless it is provoking
where is the footage?
God bless my country
Time to end this bullshit and turn the Kremlin into a parking lot.
How's that "3 day war" goin' for ya Putin??
Special refueling operation!
Pissed off from the SKY
Russia prove they are superpower. America has no courage.
Also ich finde es gut, dass die Drohne der miesen Arschl** niedergebracht wurde. Was haben unsere Drohen da zu suchen. Weg mit denen!
American intervention …? Ain’t surprising just don’t try to sugar coat it and say it isn’t their fault. Especially now everybody knows they’re responsible for sabotaging Nord Stream 2.
What was that poor little drone doing tens of thousands of miles away from his family home?
Imagine if a Russian or Chinese drone were to be spotted off the coast of Washington DC or Florida just over the international waters?
worst. pilot. ever.
It was not an accident, it was just a mistake. The Russians thought it was a balloon and we know how dangerous balloons can be.
How dare Russian borders are so close to that drone!!!!!
What Happened to the Yelow strips on the propeller ? 2 Different drones looks like
The US says the drone was on a routine mission in international airspace when two Russian jets tried to intercept it. Russia said the drone crashed after a "sharp maneuver", and denied that the two aircraft made direct contact.
well there goes another 32 million dollars of our tax money on something that shouldn't be a concern for America! The 82,000 extra IRS auditors will ensure us little people fund Biden & the Democratic party's little partnership with Ukraine!
"Im not afraid of an Army of lions led by a sheep; I'm afraid of an army of sheep led by a shovel."
Biden: I only down a cheap China weather balloon, why the hell did Russia wants to down my $35m surveillance drone?
Now, that Russia done this, the USA Government should give Ukraine sophisticated fighter Jets/weapons.
Russia just gave the USA President an excuse to arm Ukraine with sophisticated fighter Jets and weapons, let see if Biden can play chess properly.
The Russians are testing the Americans, and if the Americans let this go, it will do it again and again; that's what the Russians do, seen it too many times over the last 20 years; remember the Crimea test.
The Russian Jet just farted on the poor drone.
Yes! It's time to kick A$$(Anglo SaxonS)!
😮😮
No no they talk down in easiest and cheapest way
That is simplicity and efficiency
The west make to much bla bla waste billions for wrong decisions etc it’s just arrogance based on stupidness of colonial mentality
