اصطدام مقاتلة روسية بطائرة أميركية مسيرة

By Jordi Bou

March 14, 2023 - اصطدمت مقاتلة روسية من طراز Su-27 بطائرة أميركية مسيرة، مجبرة الطائرة من دون طيار على التحطم في البحر الأسود.

Two Russian Su-27 jets carried out what the U.S. military described as a reckless intercept of the American spy drone before one of them collided with it at 7:03am (06:03GMT).

Several times before the collision, the Russian fighter jets dumped fuel on the MQ-9 – possibly trying to blind or damage it – and flew in front of the unmanned drone in unsafe maneuvers, the U.S. military said.
