US Air Force MQ-9 Camera Footage: Russian Su-27 Black Sea Collision | VOANews

The US Air Force released this video of two Russian Su-27 aircraft dumping fuel and colliding with a US unmanned MQ-9 drone operating in international airspace over the Black Sea on March 14, 2023. The U.S. military released a video Thursday of a Russian military intercept that resulted in the downing of a U.S. surveillance drone Tuesday over the Black Sea. The video shows a Russian Sukhoi Su-27 dumping fuel as it approaches the U.S. MQ-9 drone from behind and passes over the top. A second Sukhoi Su-27 approaches in a similar manner, and as it reaches the drone, the video feed is disrupted at the moment the U.S. military says the Russian fighter aircraft collided with the drone. A final shot shows the video feed restored and that one of the drone’s propellor blades has been bent. Originally published at - » Subscribe to VOA News: » Watch mo
