    I didn't even know predator drones could view that high up either. That too is kinda funny. I wonder if the operators of the drone even knew that till it was attacked from above, and peed on lmao
    Hopefully they were able to "see" them coming, even without turning the camera. I guess they want to be able to "inspect" as much of the drone as possible during flight, so why not have the camera be able to pan/tilt that much?

    As for "peeing", I'll bet the soy-boy (or girl) controlling the drone from the portable building in Arizona or wherever did some of that : )

    A Lusitania or Pearl Harbor seem inevitable at this point. I wonder if the Americans who have been waving their Ukraine flags are ready to send their kids to Europe? Will the DEI recruits be up to the job? Terrible..
    As I've said previously... probably even in this thread... there are 330 MILLION Europeans. What are THEY? CHOPPED LIVER???

    Pretty cool video.

    What do they expect the RUAF to do wave and smile… we a literally at war with them right now, just letting the Ukrainians die first. .
    Yep... imagine a Russian drone over Lake Erie... during hostilities... and you'll get the idea.

    Well you gotta crack a few eggs to make a globalism omelette. Whats better than a couple hundred thousand more cracked white eggs? Again. To answer the question - I don't think the average American that's cheering for war with Russia puts much thought into it as most are living in starbucks twitter world. Just gotta keep up with the current thing.

    Yeah that makes perfect sense. Just never gave it much thought I guess.
    I wonder if we'll see the Russian side of the video soon. I thought we'd see it before out government released thiers tbh. I guess they did it fast this time to help bolster the evil Putler narrative. If and when we do see the Russia one, I wonder if we'll get a chance to see the load out on the predator or not. I'm curious to see if it truly was just doing "recon" or not.

    Probably doing ECM stuff. - Electronic countermeasures. And just a little bit of spying, just a little.

    Nope. Real balls would have shot that thing down. Zero tolerance. Go big or go home
    Yeah this way of doing it is so much better than simply being shot down tho. Plus they likely was able to get the drone with less damage than if they shot it down. The fact there's now video of them trolling even our drones is pretty dam funny too. Not gonna lie that is pretty hilarious. The giggle factor for the Ruskies is like lolz×Piπr²=shytonLolz

    Wake turbulence is less destructive than a missile. They wanted to preserve it best they could. Heard its already been recovered from an unconfirmed internet site, no real proof I don’t necessarily believe the claim

    I assume they have a self destruct on anything sensitive, like the control link.

    The Black sea gets extremely deep extremely fast. It’s definitely in a few thousand feet down. That is not easy to get to.

    I'd think something like that would have been designed to float

    Plus, this way, they have yet to "fire the first shot"... it's still just a "cold war", especially since that jet fuel was probably very cold! : )
