Bayraktar Drone Flies Through Russian Su-27 Jet Wash

Footage recorded by a Ukrainian TB2 Bayraktar drone over the Black Sea shows an incident in which a Russian Su-27 combat jet intentionally disrupts the flight path of the drone with its wake turbulence, commonly referred to as jetwash.

It's not immediately clear why the drone was shot down. It's possible the Russian pilot wasn't able to distinguish its nation of origin as Turkey flies their own Bayraktar drones over the Black Sea. It's also possible the aircraft were in international airspace and not worth the geopolitical fallout of engaging it.

i remember an ukranian soldier who was piloting an ukranian tb-2 said they lost communication with the aircraft and they thought it's gone but about an hour later tb2 managed to return and land by itself with many holes on the body. they fixed it and still flyimg. i think this story was on reuters.

That had a pretty big impact on that smaller drone. I didn't expect it to be that severe.

For some reason bayraktars seem cute and I got feeling of empathy for the drone in the video.

After turning so many times, it still regained control and continued on his way. This Bayraktar uses a very superior algorithm.

Dashcam videos with Ivans have always been weird and spooky. They fly as they drive.

Damn 19k up? Pretty damn good for that little drone.

Computer, AI, or Avionics... I don't know what it's called but it seems well coded. It would be impossible to save this drone If it was controlled by a human.

[Randommapper]

If it was kızılelma russian su-27 would say hi to the ground

[suhericoba]
