Allow me to explain: They don’t need mythical stealth bullshit as suggested in the nonsense text in the image posted by OP. They can simply catch up to the drone because they are much faster than it. Detected or not, they can catch up with the slow, prop-driven drone.
No, speed wouldn't account for a lack of radar detection.
The text claims the jets weren’t detected on radar. This appears to be the explanation for how they caught the drone. Stealth is not needed for jets to catch a prop plane. It is more wunderwaffen bullshit.
I never said speed would explain a lack of radar detection, I am explaining that the jets catch the prop plane without any such wizardry.
It isn’t new stealth tech. It isn’t stealth at all. It’s unsourced text on an image.
No “they” (and no one knows who “they” are) are not telling the truth.
There probably was radar detection; the only thing saying otherwise is text in an image.
The question the stealth claim is intended to address is “How did Russian planes catch a US drone?”. It posits wunderwaffen stealth. Speed is enough.
you're talking about fine line distinctions ... made by a journalist. these are people who fail basic geometry. that's why they're journalists. they're the same people who think everything is an AR15 with child-seeking bullets.
AWACS almost certainly saw the jets coming, but there’s no time to do anything about it. It’s supersonic jets, likely sortieing from Crimea, against a slow ass drone.
Nato was not going to shoot down the Russian jets and couldn’t escape; they were hoping the Russian jets wouldn’t attack but had nowhere to run.

Again: the image implies that the jets caught the drone via stealth.
That isn’t likely, and certainly isn’t necessary: speed is enough.
I’m sorry your brain is pudding.
