Ahead of a UN Security Council meeting Monday to discuss the recent violation of Estonia’s airspace by three Russian fighter jets, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said Poland would shoot down aircraft that clearly violate its airspace
Check the specs of Shahed drones ( 3.5 m or 11 ft). They don’t look civilian at all.
Also it’s not only about drones but about boats, submarines and MIG jets.
Were there some boat and submarine incursions into Polish airspace I missed?
I hear they have had trouble staying afloat but this is ridiculous!
It’s easy, you just have to replace all the air with helium, and off you go!
Context : Ruzz hybrid warfare and incursions in Europe. The latest ones being drones and fighter jets . See UN sec link for more UN Sec info and other links for other incursions.
That’s what I’m saying, even though civilian drones don’t look like military drones, would you trust an enemy force to not utilize civilian drones in some way? At which point it becomes how do you tell them apart when a civilian flies a drone somewhere unexpected, and how much do you care about false positives.
If there is any doubt, shoot first then find out who gets mad. I would hazard a guess that a. Drone enthusiasts are smart enough to fly their drones away from the border, and b. Shooting and then paying to replace a drone would be a cheap expenditure for national security.
They have and they do. It’s an issue when it’s not clear. Recently Belarusian used civilian drones somewhere , they got arrested
Just now developing story in Denmark
