New spectacular video of the Russian plane that shot down an American drone

A new and arguably spectacular video involving a Russian fighter jet and an American surveillance drone has just surfaced. The images are stunning and striking.

Recall that this session occurred over the Black Sea… and that Russia claims it did nothing, even though we can clearly see the opposite via the video.

In said video, declassified by the U.S. European Command, the rear propeller of the MQ-9 Reaper drone can be seen passing the Russian Sukhoi SU-27 aircraft in international airspace. Once stuck on the drone, it is clear that the plane has doused the drone with fuel.

The plane eventually made a U-turn to dump more fuel on the drone, and on the third attempt, the plane made contact with the drone, damaging the propeller.

The United States ended up destroying the drone since it was too damaged.
