Well, that's quite really a good fotage. And that's surely Russian
aircraft (MiG-29 or SU-27), or that may be Turkish F-15, cause there are
no other twin-tails in that region (but what would Turks need over
Abhasia?).
And, being Russian, I can believe, that Russian airforce hits Georgian
UAV. But besides the question "What did Russian fighter do over
Abhasia?" there is another question "What did Georgian UAV do there?"
Because in fact Abhasia is not a Georgian territory. During the war in
1994-95 Abhasians withdrew Georgian army and gained practically
independance. And both sides ceased fire only after UN-troops (Russians)
stood brtween them, and they had an agreement that neither Abhasian nor
Georgian planes would not fly over each other's territories. But during
last three years Georgians are very provokative.
