That is, the scheme was chosen by the Russians like this.
The Su-27 bypasses the UAV, opens the faucet and starts draining the fuel, which falls on the MQ-9 coming from behind and smears all its sensors, cameras, etc.
In fact, in the blind, he could not come back. Or the screw was flooded with fuel and it jammed.

So the Russians did not lose the Su-27.

These UAVs monitor the Crimea, many called them the perpetrators of the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge, the attack on the port in Sevastopol, and so on.

I wonder if this feint will be repeated again?
Russia decided to raise rates. Usually, only Americans dared such impudence, who could undermine, blow up, land, seize other people's toys under any stupid pretext. (A bag of white powder, which was used as a coward at the UN, as an excuse for the war in Iraq).
