Today on the Black Sea theater we record an unusual calm.
Or rather, we do not track any air movement in the area, except for the mission of a Turkish Navy ATR P-72MPA (reg.TCB-755 – c/s TURNA04) that conducted a patrol mission in the southern part of the Black Sea this morning and a Boeing E-7T (reg. 13-001) that orbited, also this morning, over eastern Romania.
Of course, this does not mean that there are no assets in the air but simply that it is not possible to track them.
Video footage of the collision between a Russian Air Force Sukhoi Su-27 and the USAF Reaper was released this morning, showing how the action on the Russian side was deliberate.
The twitter account @putinisavirus meanwhile managed to reconstruct what area the US drone approximately crashed into.
Can, rapidly, attempt to extrapolate some info from video given known weather:
— Putin is a Virus (@PutinIsAVirus) March 16, 2023
– encounter was well out of Russian airspace
– west, south west of Crimea as US said checks with clouds at time of event
– yesterday's video was probably of another encounter given clouds andspeed https://t.co/nG6Wlp33QM pic.twitter.com/TQ3RTHK9qr
