The camera is pointed backwards towards its tail and propeller. The Russian Su-27 flew past the unmanned drone&#8217;s rear and began to pump fuel.

The propeller appeared to be damaged after the camera resumed its feed.<\/p>\n<p>The military was forced to crash-land it into the Black Sea. But they weren&#8217;t done wiping it of any sensitive data in case it fell into the wrong hands.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It probably broke up, probably not a lot to recover, frankly,&#8221; General Mark Milley was the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at a Wednesday briefing. &#8220;As far as the loss of anything of sensitive intelligence, etc., as normal we would take, and we did take, mitigating measures. So we are quite confident that whatever was of value is no longer of value.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He said that it will take them days to determine if the military can recover the debris. &#8220;probably sank to some significant depths,&#8221; Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev stated that Russia would attempt to recover the drone&#8217;s wreckage.<\/p>\n<p>Although this behavior is becoming more common among Russian pilots, it is still rare for a Russian pilot to crash into a U.S. drone. Milley stated that while it was clear that the Russian pilot intercepted a U.S. drone intentionally, it remains unclear if he intended to strike it.<\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE ABOUT THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This hazardous episode is part of a pattern of aggressive, risky, risky and unsafe actions by Russian pilots in international airspace,&#8221; U.S. Secretary Of Defense <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/lloyd-austin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lloyd Austin<\/a> During a Wednesday press conference.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/defense-national-security\/lloyd-austin-and-russian-counterpart-speak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Austin and Milley<\/a> On Wednesday, they had conversations with their Russian counterparts.
