A russian plane tried to sink Bayraktar in the Black Sea


A russian fighter jet unsuccessfully tried to shoot down the Bayraktar over the Black Sea by dumping jet fuel on it.

Recently, a russian plane collided with a US MQ-9 Reaper reconnaissance drone over the Black Sea. Before that, the russians spilt out jet fuel on the drone to disable the drone. The rashists unsuccessfully tried to apply similar “tactics” to the Ukrainian Bayraktar TB-2 unmanned aerial vehicle. This was reported on Twitter by the Ukraine Weapons Tracker project.

The video shows how a russian pilot tries to “wash” a Ukrainian drone, which is much lighter than the MQ-9, into the Black Sea. The case proves that russian federation actively uses “analog” methods of combating drones in order to save on missiles. Such dumping of jet fuel can have catastrophic consequences for the ecology of the Black Sea.
