A Navy fighter pilot provides technical insight into the collision between a Russian Su-27 and a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone over the Black Sea. The pilot confirms the Su-27 was dumping JP5 jet fuel to obscure the drone's sensors, but likely struck the propeller inadvertently due to poor maneuvering. The incident is attributed to aggressive pilot behavior rather than a deliberate attempt to ignite the fuel.
