US UAV Global Hawk conducted reconnaissance off the coast of the Crimea and the Krasnodar Territory

25
Once again, the American strategic drone of the US Air Force RQ-4B Global Hawk made a long observation flight near the borders of the Russian Federation. The American UAV, being at an altitude of more than 15 thousand meters, carried out aerial reconnaissance off the coast of the Crimean peninsula and the Krasnodar Territory.

The drone was raised from the American military base Sigonella, located on the Italian island of Sicily. In the direction of Russia, the unmanned vehicle was moving through the airspace of Greece and Bulgaria, then over the Black Sea.

UAV tail number is known: 10-2043. The southernmost point of the reconnaissance flight was the Sochi area, which allowed the American drone to monitor not only the territory of the Kuban, but also, for example, the Republic of Abkhazia.

Earlier it was reported that two US Navy aircraft are conducting reconnaissance at the southern Black Sea air borders of the Russian Federation: EP-3E Aries II and P-8A Poseidon.

One can imagine what kind of hysterics would have risen in the States themselves if Russian reconnaissance drones and reconnaissance planes were actually on a rotational basis replacing each other at US borders.

        Sure. They almost unleashed a nuclear war when Khrushchev tried to deploy missiles in Cuba. But Putin has iron nerves! He very calmly observes how military bases are expanding around the perimeter of Russia and a strategic missile defense is deploying. It’s hard to imagine a similar situation with America.

      I always put “Brothers” in quotes, so they freak out, but there’s basically nothing to answer. I sent Iskanders from Crimea to them, so they talked about ...!

    The Americans did everything to ensure that it was calm near their borders. We, on the contrary, allowed it, and continue to allow it. That's the whole difference. They are not afraid of an adequate answer, because there will not be one.

      In the image and likeness of the actions of the Americans should not be followed. smile
      It's so easy to run into a setup ... I think the answer will be according to our rules ... according to the rules of the war, as we understand it.

    They scattered like the Germans in 1941. With all their actions they want to show that they are not afraid of Russia and are preparing for the worst outcome. "Great and terrible" have come down completely from the coils.

    I wish I could paint three words on it with an indication of where to go! am And when will we have at least shock drones? About such strategists like this, I generally keep quiet! Meet the American drone on the way up, remove all data from its equipment, and then try to drown its electronics!

      And when will we have at least shock drones? In the future, in the future! Yesterday, even at the Military Reception boasted that it would be all. Both the percussion and high-speed reconnaissance vehicles. I just found one such news. Note published December 20, 2015.

      Now they fly over neutral waters. Without entering the airspace of Russia. So you need to make sure that they accidentally fly into our airspace bully

        It seems something like that was in the movie about James Bond, tomorrow he will never die if memory does not change. The only problem is that the military GPS is different from the civilian one as a Cossack from a sports car of Formula 1. Yes, and it is protected in a completely different way, so the spoofing that our military loved so much will be ineffective.

    All the same, the de facto Americans recognize Crimea for the Russian Federation, because they are afraid to fly over the peninsula itself, even if Ukraine permits them.

    To the very point! Americans feel very calm and confident knowing that their borders have no one and most likely will not be. Therefore, their UAVs fly quietly wherever they wish. And about
    why don't we answer the same
    everything is simple. They are partners, and to Western partners one can only show concern and perplexity, no more. Yes

    Yes, let them dart! We definitely have nothing to scout from them - “whoever is needed” and so will call “where should” and report everything. Why did we make inflatable tanks? Let the Pentagon report on the myriad power ..

    Feed Canada / Cuba / Mexico? Not. all by yourself. laughing
    It was the USSR that could defend its interests near the United States. The capitalist RF is not able to. It's expensive. Yes and no need.
    In general, the only way to put up with regular flights. All the same, passing the buffer through the hair does not cry.
