The American RQ-4 Global Hawk drone, a day before the use of drones in Crimea, conducted large-scale reconnaissance over the Black Sea.

A few hours before drones began to appear over the Crimean peninsula, so far successfully neutralized by Russian air defense systems, it became known that the American strategic drone RQ-4 Global Hawk had carried out large-scale reconnaissance near the southern coast of Crimea, from where some of the drones and launched. Experts associate the US actions with the current situation on the peninsula, while, quite remarkably, American military aircraft and drones may well be used as repeaters for remote control of drones.

In the images presented, you can see how the American strategic drone RQ-4 Global Hawk conducts large-scale reconnaissance of the peninsula. Remarkably, the drone is studying the sector of airspace in which the latest drone interceptions were observed. To date, there is no direct evidence that the use of drones in Crimea is somehow connected with the United States, however, for the third day in a row, American aircraft over the region have not been tracked, hiding their presence.
