An R-77 Vympel missile shot down an American MQ-9 "Reaper" drone. Video

The MQ-9 "Reaper" unmanned aerial vehicle shot down by a Soviet missile.

A few hours ago, the Hussites published video frames on which you can see the downed American MQ-9 "Reaper" unmanned aerial vehicle (possibly MQ-1 "Predator" - ed.), Which was in service with Saudi Arabia.

On the presented video frames, you can see that a pile of scrap metal remained from the strike unmanned aerial vehicle, while in Saudi Arabia they refused to comment on the data, not confirming, but not disproving the incident.

At the moment, it is known that the MQ-9 "Reaper" unmanned aerial vehicle was destroyed by the Soviet R-77 "Vympel" aircraft missile launched by a ground-mounted launcher, and this case was far from the first, in particular, it was previously reported about the fact that a Chinese unmanned aerial vehicle CH-4 was shot down in a similar way, and a few days ago there was information that a similar Soviet missile R-73 "Archer" was shot down by an American unmanned aerial vehicle in Afghanistan, which was also supported by photographs.
