That's a lot of words for "They probably lost control and shooting it was better than having it land mostly intact on Ukrainian hands".

There is talk on TG that Ukraine possibly shot down the Su-57 Felon. When first reported it was reported as an SU 25 or something but then a few sources said it was actually a Su-57 Felon. There was a video posted of several ground to air missiles taking out a high altitude target. Waiting for clarification.

It'll be funny if the Ukranians hacked the drone somehow to land intact at a Ukranian base, with the Russians panicking as that started to unfold. :)
