Quoted: Where's the video? I can't believe there isn't a 360 camera view on these things. Shit, a fucking Hyundai has 360 view when parking. View Quote We had video footage of my truck hitting a VBIED, they didn't let me have a copy. Sure it's somewhere, only wish I could get a copy of it one day. |

Considering all the targeting data we give their enemies with our surveillance platforms, its kind of ridiculous to get all bothered and start clutching your pearls.

Quoted: The russian fighter probably never saw it, or the US is lying and it was shot down. I am going with the latter View Quote If he didn’t see it my guess is the collision would have been catastrophic for both and the Flanker would’ve crashed too. I’m not buying the story either. It was shit down. If we don’t get shown the video then it was for sure shot down. This happened in the Gulf when I was there and we got to do some sweet max endurance DCA for the drones. |

So the Russians down a US drone in international airspace. Isn't this an act of war?

Quoted: we automatically release all footage from our military assets to the public after any sort of incident... View Quote If the story went as our government said, yeah right, then we will get the video. Videos are released all the time of unsafe Russian and Chinese fighter interactions. If it was shot down then we won’t. It’s that simple. |

So at some airbase in Russia, they are painting a drone kill on one of their jets.

Quoted: Playing chicken with an unmanned aircraft? I really hope they try that again. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: A Russian fighter jet has collided with an American Reaper drone over the Black Sea, the US military confirmed today. The US military said a Russian fighter jet clipped the propeller of the drone, forcing the US to bring it down over the Black Sea. A Pentagon official told Al-Jazeera that the collision occurred after two Russian fighters tracked the American hardware 'in an unprofessional or safe manner', the news organisations Arabic language Twitter account said. One Western source said earlier that an investigation was underway to check whether the drone had been shot down in the area of intense NATO military activity close to the Ukraine war frontlines. It was quickly confirmed that a collision had occurred between a US-made MQ-9 Reaper and a Russian Su-27 fighter jet. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11859443/Russian-fighter-jet-CRASHES-Reaper-drone-Black-Sea.html Yeah. lol |

Meh, if the drone was being used to provide Ukraine with intelligence I'd say that makes it fair game. Not like we haven't done the same thing to other country's assets. Sucks for the taxpayers though.

who said i believe in russian talking points? ever think to yourself that some people don't pick sides becauses that is what has been taught to us and beat into our brains since children. i side with research, the facts, the truth. just like in iraq. sadaam was far from perfect, but he sure as hell kept the middle east stable. zelensky is a plant and if you think otherwise, you're choosing not to see whats in front of your eyes my brother

The news reports are as believable as the tummy tuck reason with the four US citizens who drove into Mexico.

Oh we better declare war on Russia and send troops off to another episode of the forever war. Tell the public how we need to go over there to fight for our Freedom meanwhile what's left of our Freedom is being raped right here by our elected public servants.

Quoted: I'm not an aviation engineer, but I would think that a mid air collision would also bring down the Jet. View Quote If they are flying at about the same speed, then the collision is not much of anything. Blue Angels and Thunderbirds have bumped wingtips when rehearsing. Clipping the prop with a wingtip will leave damage on the wingtip. It would be a shame if we put one up that was rigged to explode when fucked with like that. |

Quoted: So the Russians down a US drone in international airspace. Isn't this an act of war? View Quote Iranians clearly shot down a U.S. Military Drone in international airspace in June 2019. Iran shot it down by a SAM launched from Iran so no "maybe it was an 'collision' " mamby pamby. President Trump didn't do anything (besides toss some additional U.S. 'sanctions' on Iranian leadership). The whole point of drones is to be able to accomplish mission goals without risking valuable aircrew to loss. Bigger_Hammer |

Ukraine is just the next step for them. Ukraine might not be perfect, but neither is the US or Europe. I see what's happening in Ukraine as very similar to what happened in the leadup to WWII. Now is our chance to stop Russia before they keep pushing. So far at least the cost is relatively low and those munitions and equipment we're handing over were generally made to stop the Russians when they attacked. They're being used as intended and someone else is paying in blood to use them. |

The rooskis did not shoot down the drone. However, there was a collision between the drone and an independently powered, detachable, and steerable part mounted on the rooski jet.

It's gonna be a big war sooner than people think, and China will take Taiwan, and we wont be able to respond well to a big regional skirmish because we gave it all to Ukraine and more missle chips could take a few years for production. Putin's has everything to lose with a failed war and is getting old, his closest advisors have lost kids due to exploded cars. The US had economic and financial issues which hurt a continued war chest when BRICS is now overtaking GDP of US allied countries, prompting an alternative world reserve currency.
Potatus could use the crisis as an impetus to round up "foreign actors" causing malinformation, hello return of Japanese internment camps for MAGA, as well as steal another election with the senate to pack the supreme court. It's going to get very, very bad! |
