VIDEO CORRECTION: When I say the Croatian PM said there was a danger the drone could have struck a Croatian nuclear power station I misspoke when quoting the original Croatian-language article.

I've seen a number of US gov't videos about industrial accidents. Frequently, accidents happen because someone disabled an alarm system because it kept going off or because previous false alarms caused people to ignore the real thing. You'd think that, with a war going on next door, you'd pay attention to anything flying into your air space, but I guess not.

[@eljanrimsa5843]

with the possibility of it carrying a nuclear or biological bomb, I can understand that they duck low and hope it won't hit them

[@jwenting]

after a number of false alarms, people tend to get complacent. And especially if superiors threaten them with punishment if they make a false report again they're more likely to not report something and claim later they never saw it than to report it on the off chance it might be real this time. That attitude isn't new, it's been there forever. The main reason Mathias Rust wasn't shot down for example was pretty much the same. After the shooting down of KAL007 over Siberia there had been such a backlash in the Soviet air defense forces that the officers who should have ordered the Cessna shot down or forced to land were afraid to do so without direct orders from Moscow, orders that never came because their superiors who had to relay the requests to Moscow were afraid to bother the generals in the ministry of defense...

[@paolo3349]

In an airspace incursion the air defense operators will request a pilot do a visual check of the radar contact. The pilot would have identified the civilian Cessna and known it was not a NATO attack. Then it becomes an interior police issue.

[@billchasser8978]

Dr Felton. Thank you for your commentary. I’ve enjoyed your history lessons. I also find it refreshing to get some actual unbiased narratives on what is actually happening in Ukraine. We are not getting very good reporting of events in Eastern Europe here in the US and much on KZbin is rehashed old news as no one seem to want to date stamp when the events have occurred.

[@vorda400]

Since most of the EU had no idea that anything had fallen on Zagreb, Mr. Felton surprised me every time. This drone is a relic ready for a museum, but it was used by the Ukrainian army for an exercise There are two possible variants of the event: provoking the Russian Air Force to reveal its radar positions but a malfunction in the outdated navigation system led it to my city Another possible scenario is the deliberate launch of a drone through the airspace of NATO members to show the Alliance Command that we are all vulnerable, if the 1970 drone can, then modern missiles can do much more. Our Prime Minister together with the Minister of Defense put forward the thesis that an FAB-120 air bomb was placed in the drone and they placed it in the media without evidence or findings of experts who only confirmed that there were traces of explosives on the drone but from retro parachute launchers and a small charge in a system that would destroy equipment in a drone so that the enemy would not find out what his reconnaissance mission was This was confirmed by the retired pilot of the Croatian Air Force, Brigadier Ivan Selak, that all Russian planes have similar charges aimed at destroying communication devices. I don't know why our government is sticking to the air bomb story because the people don't feel safe that bombs are falling on the capital again after 27 years since the war for independence. Or is it a story for NATO to create some kind of hysteria to increase control over our country because we currently do not have the ability to control the sky at night It seems that we Croats will not find out the truth so quickly

Could also be a poor attempt for a false flag attack to pull NATO into direct conflict.

Hi Mark! Im Croatian, and also a fellow history and military enthusiast. I just wanted to say, that It takes 10 minutes to assemble the squadron of our MiG-21s, the drone was in our airspace for 7 minutes, so it wasn't possible for it to be intercepted. I am glad that the drone fell and didn't injure anyone, it could of went much worse. Im glad our government after this incident started to think about buying an air defence system like the Patriot or NASAMS, because we currently dont have any air defence systems and it is the biggest disadvantage of our military. But 12 French Rafale f3r fighters are on order.

[@apsynto]

I, on the other hand, wish it would have hit the student home and caused casualties. Not because I want innocents to needlessly die, i am croatian as well, but because maybe, and just maybe, then NATO would have gotten the much needed kick in the ass and realized how bloody useless their defences are. This way, few months later, no one will remember this even happened.

After 7 minutes of flying from the Hungarian border, the Ukrainian drone Tu-141 ran out of fuel and, according to the program, dropped a parachute, which probably fell off due to age and did not do its job, and the drone crashed into the ground creating a 3m crater. The drone itself probably carried an intelligence package instead of a combat one, and the parts and traces of explosives found were minimal and probably served for self-destruction. If indeed the drone was equipped with a warhead, the warhead did not activate, because otherwise a warhead of 100-120 kg of explosives would do drastically more damage and a crater of much larger diameter.

[@MarkFeltonProductions]

I can only rely on what the Croatian government has released as they have the wreckage.

@@MarkFeltonProductions It should be noted that many other current and former Croatian military officials expressed doubt in the "large bomb" theory, instead opting for the "small bomb" described here (as the crater wasn't incredibly large, non of the debris were expelled from it, almost no window in the vicinity shattered...). Indeed the government itself is the only official source, but their initial statements were very clumsy and rushed, leading some to believe the statements about the bomb were only said to get NATO's interest.

Feels like a test run of NATO air defenses. Yes the minister said Ukraine is the only country with them in service, however it would be quite effective if a clandestine operation launched one under those pretenses.

[@Atlas-zm6bn]

russia has them in stock as well, but Ukraine is the primary user yes.

[@TheKitMurkit]

@@Atlas-zm6bn Russia also uses them as a target for Ukrainian air defense. Cruise missile is being launched after the drone, in hopes that air defense will hit three drone and the missile will survive to hit the target.

[@derbigpr500]

People often forget that 30% of Ukraine is pro-russian and they have access to those drones too.

[@dinkoz1]

This was not accidental crash, it has to be programmed to hit in Zagreb. Tu-141 is programmed a bit complicated for the flight, most of the guidance parameters are analog inputs so that "error" would not lead to such a stable flight path, further from radar monitoring there are flight path corrections of wind-induced deviations are visible and also very obvious course corrections, ie the drone had very specific targets because the correction parameters were narrowly set to save fuel if larger deviations from the direct nearest path to the target were allowed. Furthermore, the urbanized area of ​​Croatia is so small that the probability that an aircraft consumes fuel after a flight of more than 1000 km and "falls" right on Zagreb is approximately 1: 235808000

Thank you. I have not seen this news here in the states. Have relatives from Yugoslavia, Hungary and Romania. Thanks again.

Absolutely love the work you do Mr Felton. Saddened that it is current day war.

sorry people of Croatia (and Ukraine) many of us in Hungary also embarrassed what our stupid government has been doing lately in this war 😰

[@altergreenhorn]

1:02 Bomb detonated on impact wasn't a real bomb (croatian politicians have no clue) it is security feature which is ment to destroy all data on the drone if the drone fail the task. It was explained by the retired Croatian fighter pilot who flew on MIG 21 which have the same security feature activated as soon as pilot eject from the plane. The drone was from Ukraine plane simple because the range of the drone is too short to be from russia

[@emanuell5926]

That’s a problem……

[@user-yh7zc9ke4s]

russians control occupied territory in eastern Moldova, they even launched about 40 cruise missiles on us. Not that far from balkans

[@shanedezorzi5800]

There are Russian forces right by Moldova so I am sure it could have been theirs to it wouldn't have come from Russia so it's hard to say who's it was.

[@richardkudrna7503]

Was analysis done to determine factually the explosive power? I find this suicide concept plausible as in attack mode the parachute would not have deployed. Or did the parachute fly off at impact? Need facts.

[@altergreenhorn]

@@shanedezorzi5800 For shure those forces went to the russian junkyard just to find old soviet drone and send it to the croatia. meanwhile ukraine officially still using that old drone, it was used more than once to attacked rebel parts of ukraine since 2014

[@Douglas_Macnuke]

In Slovenia , there was a huge media scare , over the fact that a Slovenian nuclear power plant is 40 km away from zagreb

[@argaies]

I can imagine. It flew near the Hungarian nuclear power plant. The Hungarian forces did not react. We just had an election campaign and they kept quiet about it. There is no public investigation either. I'm very sad.

[@TheSulross]

Mark Felton videos are fascinating but usually one feels rather safe and secure in viewing them in knowing that they are about events remote in time by 3/4 of a century. This video strikes a nerve, though, because it's in the here and now.

[@gordonpeden6234]

Thanks Mark, I never hear of this via our 'Media' Keep up the good work.

[@michal_nogiec]

I am very thankful for your detailed analysis of the incident. Be aware that, for example in Poland, we had not been provided all the details revealed after the occurence. All we had been informed of, was the fact of the crash. Then, there were no subsequent information. Propaganda, however it aims opposite aims uses the same tools for both sides of the conflict.

[@merlin6625]

Unfortunately this happens in a war, mistakes and miscalculations can and do happen in the red zone. I'm thankful it didn't trigger WWIII!! 👏 May the Great Spirit watch over you. 🙏

[@slamchowder9509]

So interesting, well researched and well presented! Another slam dunk, Mark.

[@EdMcF1]

No truth in the rumour that Romanian officials, seeing the drone heading for Hungary, cracked open some fizz and forgot to tell their neighbours.

Those Orlan 10 drones are "state of the art", their wings are held on by gaffer tape.

Since 1995, Tupolev began promoting the further refined "Tu-300 Korshun", which resembles its predecessors but is fitted with a nose antenna dome and nose fairings for modern sensors and electronic systems. It also features a centerline pylon for a sensor pod or munitions. Financial issues forced a halt to development at the end of the 1990s, but work was resumed in 2007

[@Shipwright1918]

Personally satisfied to hear the full version of the acronym "UFO" used correctly. Doesn't automatically mean "alien spacecraft", just an unknown object up in the sky (most tend to use the term "UAP" or Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, these days precisely because the term UFO is so loaded). Since you've already covered Die Glocke and the rumors of Nazi flying discs, just for giggles it'd be interesting to see something about the "Foo Fighters" and "Ghost Rockets" commonly reported during WW2 might've been.

[@poke765]

Mark i would love if you could show some interest on Finnmark in 44-45 where the German 20th army fought. My great grandfather fought for the 36th corps in the area. I think this aspect is overlooked.

[@Josway37]

I had never heard of Finnmark until you mentioned it. I actually thought it was probably a typo until I looked it up. Interesting.
