U.S. European Command said in a statement that the U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone was flying over international waters in the Black Sea flanked by two Russian jets when one of the jets flew in front of the drone and dumped fuel. One of the jets then damaged the propeller of the unmanned drone, forcing it to land in the Black Sea.

“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,” Gen. James B. Hecker, commander of U.S. Air Forces Europe and Air Forces Africa, said in a statement. “In fact, this unsafe and unprofessional act by the Russians nearly caused both aircraft to crash.”

just start loading them with a few pounds of HE and blow the next motherfucker up when they get close to it. "oops, sorry russia, your stupid ass pilot blew up our drone, and his own plane...."

The Ministry of Defense commented on the incident with the American UAV over the Black Sea
An American MQ-9 drone fell into the Black Sea due to its own sharp maneuvering, Russian fighters did not come into contact with it, the Ministry of Defense said .

They specified that the incident occurred this morning in the Crimean region. According to the agency, the drone with transponders turned off flew in the direction of Russia, violating the borders of the area of the temporary regime for the use of airspace established for the purpose of conducting a special military operation.

After the discovery of the drone, fighters from the duty air defense forces took to the air.

"As a result of sharp maneuvering around 9:30 Moscow time, the MQ-9 unmanned aerial vehicle went into uncontrolled flight with a loss of altitude and collided with the water surface," the Defense Ministry said.

The ministry emphasized that the Russian fighters did not use airborne weapons and did not come into contact with the drone. After departure, they returned safely to their home airfield.

Earlier today, the US European Command announced that a Russian Su-27 fighter jet allegedly collided with an American MQ-9 drone in the sky over the Black Sea. They specified that after that the drone fell into international waters. It was alleged that shortly before the incident, the Su-27 allegedly made "unsafe" maneuvers.

US President Joe Biden was briefed on the incident. The State Department also summoned Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov . According to State Department spokesman Ned Price , United States officials will express "sharp dissatisfaction" to the diplomat because of the "unprofessional interception." In addition, he said that Ambassador to Moscow Lynn Tracy "earlier today reported to the Russian Foreign Ministry a serious statement" in connection with the incident.

Fly an old one on it's last legs close to their coast with a 500-pound warhead stashed in it and most of the gear stripped out with some proximity sensors and cameras that are remote controlled. Next time, BANG! If yer lucky you can get two of them with a "technical malfunction".

A regional UK accent.

Here is what the guys who fly FPV did before the war and most hobbyist are probably training pilots, you fly an FPV drone manually and are unconscious of the controls in your hands, the headset fills your vision and you become the soul of the machine.

Here is a young guy I support with views, nice guy with a lot of talent, he flies professionally now as many drone pilots do.

In war ya use whatever is at hand to bash the bastards with, in this war it happens to be cellphones, drones and other tech added to the old fashioned tried and true methods of mass murder. War is Hell, but the Ukrainians have little choice, Bucha kinda proved that.

Astrakhan, Yamalo-Nenetsk, Bashkorkostan – these are Russian regions with the largest number of casualties suffered. The least casualties are in the Moscow and St. Petersburg regions accordingly. But the conscripts seem to end in the occupying army and the arrival of Western tanks to Ukraine is not far away. Our correspondents will tell you more about the state of affairs at the front line.

Graham is not my favourite pug but I can not fault him for being against Russia and for the military. He has been a consistent hawk from way back.
