The White House called the pilot who shot down the US drone an idiot

No civilized country would reward pilots for deliberately putting themselves in danger, John Kirby insisted.

Russian authorities have a unique understanding of bravery if they regard the pilots who shot down an American reconnaissance drone over the Black Sea as heroes. This was in a briefing on March 22, said the coordinator for strategic communications of the National Security Council at the White House, John Kirby.

He called the rewarding in the Russian Federation of the pilots who took part in the incident in the air ridiculous.

“I don’t know of any other army in the world, no other air force in the world, that would reward a pilot for crashing a drone. If that’s bravery, I think they have a different definition of it.” This is ridiculous,” said the representative of the US administration.

Kirby added that putting himself in danger was “a fool at best.”

“We don’t know if this pilot intentionally rammed the drone or not, but he did. The video evidence is pretty compelling… I have no idea why they gave a bravery award to a pilot who deliberately put himself and US property at great risk, and at best, just an idiot,” he summed up.

Remember, on March 14, the US military said that a Russian aircraft shot down a US reconnaissance drone over the Black Sea.

The Russian Federation has denied that its fighters have engaged the MQ-9 Reaper. According to the country’s Ministry of Defense, the device “flew with violations” and fell as a result of sharp maneuvering.

Later it became known that the Minister of Defense of Russia Sergei Shoigu presented the pilots of Su-27 fighters who took part in the incident in the air with an American drone for state awards.
