On March 14,  a United States drone flying over the Black Sea was downed by a Russian jet, according to the Pentagon. Remains of the drone, which was  built  Poway by General Atomics, have not yet been recovered.

Russia denied causing the crash, however video released by the Pentagon shows that the Russian jet was flying close to the drone and dumping fuel onto it. The Pentagon believes that the fuel was being dumped in order to damage surveillance technology on the drone, and that  the jet accidentally clipped the propeller of the drone, causing it to crash. The video shows that the Russian jet clearly damaged the propeller of the drone.
