I mean this is the kind of shit that happens when you try to bullshit air defense like russia does. Depending on the situation, hitting a large cargo aircraft wouldn't be too hard with a fixed wing drone, or even a quadcopter in the right circumstances I guess, but the point is where the fuck was their air defenses? I don't know why the world still treats russia like it is a military superpower, this is pathetic, they are just willing to condemn their entire next generation to death rather than evolve.
