US Drone "Intercepted" Over Crimea By Russian 'Self-Defense' Forces
An American scout-attack drone, "almost invisible at a height of 4000 meters" has, according to AFP, been intercepted in the Crimean sky. Reports from the Russian state arms and technology group Rostec stated, judging by side-markings it was an MQ-5B drone - which is likely part of the 66th US Recon Brigade based in Bavaria. It was possible to break the drone’s link with its American operators with the help of the EW (electronic warfare) complex Avtobaza. As a result, the device made an emergency landing and passed into the possession of the self-defense forces almost unbroken."
An American scout-attack drone was intercepted in the Crimean sky, the Rostec state corporation reports. "Judging by side marking, the MQ-5B drone was part of the 66th US brigade of military intelligence with the main location in Bavaria," the report on the website of the corporation reads.
According to the report, at the beginning of March, the American brigade was relocated to the Ukrainian Kirovohrad, from where drones commit reconnaissance raids in the direction of Crimea and Russian border areas.
Earlier, they reportedly appeared in the Kherson region, in the area of the Crimean roadblock Chongar. "According to some data, the American reconnaissance brigade had 18 MQ-5B drones in its arsenal. This is the second time the American UAV is intercepted over Crimea," the report says.
"The drone was at the height of about 4 thousand meters and was practically invisible from the earth. It was possible to break the drone’s link with its American operators with the help of the EW (electronic warfare) complex Avtobaza. As a result, the device made an emergency landing and passed into the possession of the self-defense forces almost unbroken," the report says.
"Self-defense" it would appear does not cross a red-line (until Sunday).
It is perhaps ironic that the US is complaining abouit Russia's military presence in Ukraine even as its own equipment is reportedly operating in the country.
What next: CIA spooks in Kiev inciting a violent coup, oh wait, that would be Libya or Egypt. And everyone knows what a success that way.
And as expected, the Pentagon promptly denied the drone belonged to the US. It denied it not the biblical three times, but four. They must really mean it.
Seeking expert opinion on who else has UAV MQ-5B drones. Pentagon say not playing semantics "No truth" its US. Asked four times, four ways.

Bullish on relabeled $500 9-volt copper tops for the controllers.....
Clapper uses these profits for parties and dancing girls.
Ya right. Now you gonna tell me they threw in a lost hammer for an extra 417$
"self-defense forces" with radars and electronic warfare equipment? Yeah, right!
Probably in the fine print of the original deal.
invisible at 4,000 feet. In the fog?
4,000 *meters*
let's get it on! hopefully McStain's plane will get shot down... again...
When they said a drone was "intercepted", I thought they meant Kerry was pushed out of an hot air balloon over the Black Sea.
.
...when horses fly.
If you like our drone, you can keep our drone.
The Botch and Lurch Show.
Wondering if the same thing didn't happen to flight 370 to prevent anti Russian provocateurs from entering the area.
Apparently the latest theory is that flight 370 landed on a remote uninhabited island in the middle of the ocean.
Was Sawyer or Hugo on the flight as well?

Crashed on purpose in the Andamans...cannot be explained why.
The 777 is a $295 million plane. You cannot tell me that Air Malaysia or whatever airline it was did not have stuff on there to find it even if the transponders were shut off? I know a place that sells used cars for less that $7000 that has transponders on them in case they need to repo them.
Ah, but the brave Uighur freedom fighters or at least their American friends had the knowhow to override all of the plane's electronics...actually all 777 should be grounded pending an investigation & replacement of the hackable avionics components. lol
The handling of the affair by Malaysia suggest at least partial collusion with the culprits.
It has been suggested by Jim Stone the plane was hijacked using USAF AWACS to confuse traffic control (hence why military radar still tracked it for a time, and Rolls Royce says data was still being sent).
For what purpose?
It likely involves the programmers from Freescale Semiconductor who were on-board.
Wake me up when TOTUS surrenders.
In our best interests.
Are we going to be tying yellow ribbons and having candlelight vigils for the drone?
Anything to drum up support.
.
Don't forget the Support The Drones bumper stickers. Good opportunity for groath in that business.
drone memorial site - NEVER FORGET! it was our drone dammit. those bears had no right.
May I suggest throwing all globalists and oligarchs out of the country and restoring the laws of the Constitution of the United States of America.
.
You just know that SCOTUS would find that unconstitutional.
Fuck you, you serial downvoting piece of globalist sheet!!!
I just downvoted you to balance the green/red thingy.......beavis,
Those drones were developed from target drones. When faced with an opposition air force they revert back to being target drones!
FALSE FLAG EVENT ON SATURDAY MARCH 15, 2014?
http://www.gerhard-wisnewski.de/Multilingual/english/War-on-15-March.html
Beware the ides of March.
Are we sure the drone wasn't knocked down by "The Weather"?
bitch left me cuz of the weather
It's not ours but can we have it back?
Have fun with Ruskies! Reuse it to deliver Vodka to the troops.
Ah yes, like the Stealth Drone the Iranians captured, amusingly using the same method.
Which Hitler Clinton denied publically was the U.S's, until it was put on display by Iran.
hahaha - You think Russia and Putin are a push-over. Dismantle the drone and then send it back to the US with a note. Better luck next time. Better yet, retrokit it for Snowden to use over US air space. Atleast then the drone will be put into good use for the people.
Russians must return the drone back on their own. Together with a couple of good Russian air missiles - land with pre-programmed target designation.
Too bad that these drones are programmed to fly back if link broken.
"almost invisible at a height of 4000 meters"
Almost seems to become a typical American word. Almost....as in "we almost won that war".
Also like "we ain't almost totally bankrupt" in Obama's USSA.
"What are you smiling about?"
"Dude, I almost had you!"
"You almost had me? You never had me! You never had your country!"
You know I woudl think that they could have it self destruct versus being captured. Anyway we have no business being there in the first place.
Good thing no one would even think of aiming a captured drone at its home base without it appearing to be out of control, and then using the self-destruct in range of the home base troops.
/sarc
/smrt
/whiskeytangofoxtrot
Due to the Russians wanton disregard for the saftey of our virtual drone operators, we have authorized the Pentagram to commence military operations in Ukraine. 'Operation Liberate Ukrainians/Russians from their Useless Containers' will now commence. /sarc off.
War trophy!
What I wouldn't give to see this bird fly again with the Russian flag on the tail!
That thing doesn't look anything like MQ-5B drone to me.
stock photo?
I'm pretty sure we have a drone in the White House too. Maybe the Ruskies can divert him to another country which would solve just about all of our problems! Poof....tad dahhh
McCain is another Soros drone as is horse face.
yes, mr. irving phelps, but which one? kenya, indonesia, chicago, hawaii? that drone-bama gets around. what's the home base? harvard?
President DRONE-bama finds that it is easier to bomb a Muslim wedding or to drone-kill Pakistani children than it is to drone a well-equipped military force.
"Judging by side marking, the MQ-5B drone was part of the 66th US brigade of military intelligence with the main location in Bavaria"
Absolutely correct! Read this on RT website:
US opens drone facility in Germany, insists ‘not for spying purposes’ (published time: October 09, 2013)
The Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) facility was officially opened at Vilseck Army Airfield on Monday (Oct. 7, 2013) by 7th Army Joint Multinational Training Command (JMTC). A letter of agreement between US and German authorities allows them the use of two ‘air bridges’ in the east of the country to train operators, it will be the first time a US unmanned aerial vehicle will fly beyond the limits of military training areas.
Hunter MQ-5B systems will span the distance between Hohenfels and Grafenwoehr, in the south east of the country, about 100km east from Nuremberg. Hohenfels is approximately 100km further south from Grafenwoehr.
[...] Hunter MQ-5B are currently the largest and most advanced of their type, and will not be armed, and will be controlled from the ground. The distance apparently reflects that which soldiers would have to navigate in Afghanistan, operators said. The vehicle will travel between approximately 11,000 and 14,000 feet in the sky.
it is not that difficult, https://climateviewer.com/gallery/dashboard/drones/sentinel-infographic.jpg
If the Russians are smart, they'll put this thing on Russia Today and make us look like fools. If they don't I'd suspect that there is a problem with this story.
Yes, if a real story, RT needs to run the story with pictures and eye witness accounts. If not, then Pentagon walks free again.
proof

Sorry, I don't understand, why would they need to put it on Russia Today?
It's a organic issue?
Kinda like rubbing a little dirt. Get it?
POLAND
No, Mr. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States, General Martin Dempsey.
This aint Afghanistan you're messing with.
We're just scouting around for real estate opportunities. What is private equity going to invest in once we top out here?
there will be costs for this.
Freedom costs about tree fitty.
If the Pentagon denies it, then end of story. No American drone was lost to Crimean electronic warfare system.
If we can just learn how to do that in America.
Easy. Get the Russians at Rostec to sell you the product key for their "Avtobaza" drone-downing software.
Vlad might want to wear a rubber: shortly after the Iranians 'intercepted' a US drone and began anally-probing its deepest secrets, they caught a dose of the STUXNET virus...
Israel has 'em too, and they play with Russians too (basically any technology given to Israel is immediately sold/gieven/traded to Russians at a discount).

Two genuine pics of the 'Hunter' MQ-5B drone:

Pictures taken on the occasion of the official presentation by the German and U.S. Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) at the U.S. military base in Vilseck-Grafenwoehr October 8, 2013.
Those are two totally different drones in those images.
Ok I admit it........that was my drone. Can I have it back please?
LMAO this is quit hillarious imo and I can hear Obama once again "NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YOU CANT DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!".
Are they this easy to hack? No default program to return to a predesignated base if the communication link is broken?
Military software is as shitty as my medical office software apparently. Good thing they are just beta testing this shit and it wasn't a real war.
Unless it WAS a trojan horse.
Moar ramping up of this distraction from the crashing dollar?
http://rt.com/news/nato-war-games-poland-142/
Dear World, the American People wish to sincerely apologize for our lack-toast responses to this tyranny run amok. The people of the USA are to afraid of their own govt to stand up to it. Please help us stop this satanic evil that seeks to kill us ALL.
We the American People do not want war with Russia or anyone else. We no longer have any control over these babylonians in the houses of leadership here in the USA. No one supports this evil murderous world warmongering here. There is a small minority that have usurped the entire country for the warmongering profiteers. The people no longer have a peaceful voice to change all the horrible things this out of control govt is doing. We are so sorry that the banksters have made enemies of us all by pitting each against the other. We are so very sorry that so many have been killed and murdered. We have no control over who the US govt kills anymore.
Sadly, here in the USA it is the same old Cesarean divide and conquer methodology that is hurting us all. We do not want the violence and cannot peacefully at this time change it all. They own all the corrupted evil lame stream propaganda media and information sources so therefore, truth is bound up and will never to be heard from as long as the lying dying evil media snake is coiled around it's neck choking truth to death.
This well planned slow moving agenda to kill America and the dollar is being covered up by the banter and warmongering rants of the insane bankster puppets in our govt. They are NOT real Americans. It seems that both sides of the chessboard are playing the IMF money-god game as one force of evil. One hand washes the other, while the hidden hand works its evil. Darn sad, really sad to see this is happening as the world just watches. Many many more in the majority know who is responsible for THIS unbridled warmongering, and everybody knows what is being covering up by this globalist distraction. The planned US dollar crash is coming. America has been conquered by the enemies within. Perhaps moar false flag events like maybe even tomorrow (March 15, 2014) will happen to stir up the hornets nest even more in these evil propagations of war for profit.
http://www.gerhard-wisnewski.de/Multilingual/english/War-on-15-March.html
The years of preparation by the babylonian govt have been ongoing 24/7 in this gearing up to declare war on the American People. The stupidity of world-warring with the Russians is a ruse. The real war with the Russians will be with those dressed up as American soldiers, or UN troops come here to quell the seditious American People after Martial Law has been declared. The planned crash might come first, though. What insanity it is to rattle the sabers and to pump up this war BS to cover up the planned crash of the dollar. What a huge scam it all is. Ask yourself at the end of the day, who profits from all this?
TO ANY REAL LAW ENFORCERS WORLD-WIDE: Please help the American people by declaring war on the leadership that no one but the banksters control. Please come here to take these evil things to a court of law to be prosecuted for the premeditated and well planned murders of millions of the world's people, BEFORE it all happens again. We do not want any war with anyone in the world at all. We can all live and fairly and trade together WITHOUT these evil babylonian banksters and their horrid money-god.

Except Purim is March 16th this year.
Daddy, did you lose another drone at work today?...
It's based on IAI design - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IAI_RQ-5_Hunter
And thos emigh thave been sold to every stable country in the region ..
Geeze, you don't think they'll torture it do you?
Its a trojan "rubber" horse, the russians take it in, we begin to ease drop on their Wifi nets. We proceed to upload a virus which turns thier network into a broadcast storm fucking a stuxnet. Its all in the play book.
Everyone knows Americans are the good guys. And that is a kick ass model plane.
Fuck. When do we get our refund from the MIC?
"Bavaria, we have a problem."
The NSA commandeered it.
Just to show how good they are at this sort of thing.
Are the Russians going to sell the drone on eBay? What a cool bidding war would ensue.
I bet the dumbasses didn't even encrypt that signal. That's how the Iranians brought that other one down.
Never thought I would cheer on the visiting team, but here I am.
Why don't these drones self-destruct? Why would you let technology get into the hands of the enemy so easily?
why the fuck do we have drones flying around Crimea? nothing else to spend money on?
"And as expected, the Pentagon promptly denied the drone belonged to the US. It denied it not the biblical three times, but four. They must really mean it."
and so they do. especially the extra extra part. cause that part was different. as noted above.
letting 'em know that we know they know...etc. satellites, you know. and the no fire orders from putin-takin to the those hiding under wraps. can't shoot if your hiding in plain sight. too cowardly. it'd be on you-tube.
these military boys of ours are good at these things.
keeping the peace.
earning their pay and then some.
:)
Time for Russia to step up and prove that they're more magnanimous than Iran and return the drone once the U.S. politely asks for its return. Bwahahaha! Thanks, I'm here all week. Be sure to tip your waitresses...
