concerning.that is a new technique and the tankers really are vulnerable. to me they will stay in the shipping lanes, they will keep their transponders on they will have u.s. and allied navies there are keeping watch but i think it comes down to additional talks about the potential redline. and it says that you have to be protected to be in this channel and if something comes across the line you how to identify yourself or risk being shot at. some of the new video we got into the newsroom showed some guys coming down from helicopters. it is so scary to watch that. look secure watching a movie but it s not. it s very dangerous, it is very serious and now as you said, it s like a tanker war is back on. and you mentioned, he talked about russia but internationally speaking, when we look at how many people are watching this right now, what else are you hearing in your circle about what can be done, what are people throwing out there? is really stunning to me
things that they are putting in the information echo system right now that is going to muddy the waters. you can t talk to a global hawk. i mean, you can t send it signals if you are an enemy force. it might go into the system but it has to be translated to the the pilots on the ground if you will. and certainly a device like this would turn off its transponders if it s collecting this kind of data. remember, erin, the other thing is this aircraft is flying between 30,050,000 feet. when it is shot down it s also going to spread debris all over the place. so the iranians could potentially pick up parts of this aircraft even on land if it was hit in the right way and it actually crashed to land or sea in their area. and get some really crucial information nayyera. this is the importance of the fact that it was a drone shot down not a manned aircraft. that gives the president and other officials some pgs ohs of
remember in 2008 is when the russians invaded georgia. in 2014, they invaded ukraine. they got a lot of attention. they ve been doing low level provocations and getting more provocative, buzzing nato airspace. in the case of nato countries, they don t turn on their transponders. these are incredibly provocative. they do it to see how the united states and our nato allies respond. they re gathering intelligence as they conduct these operations. neil: rebecca, these were international waters. that s correct. they were in international waters. the united states navy was doing nothing wrong. the russians say it was the u.s. navy, the chancellorsville that conducted the action. our u.s. navy sailors are doing
mm-hmm. yes. everything was routine until now. two minutes after talking with air traffic control, 40 minutes into the flight, the plane s transponder goes dark. the plane s transponders is effectively the instrument which sends out a signal to air traffic control. it tells you what height it s at, which direction, and what speed it s traveling. suddenly this giant 777 is blind to the world. and there s no easy explanation for why it happened. either it was intentional and someone tried to turn all of those systems off at once, or the pilot was unable to communicate, kept from communicating, or there was a mechanical failure of some kind that took all those systems out at one time. then minutes after the transponder stops, the 777 makes an unexpected turn, heading west and way off course. that the plane turned
that meet standards. the bags design also plays a decisive role the details are well thought out the style is casual and functional . the collection is being sold in some two hundred stores worldwide a bag. made from banana fiber costs around two hundred twenty euros the model range is limited at present but more designs are in the works. for us here. in the course of its developments we also discovered that lots of companies were interested in trying it out. dr we were a bit surprised by the demand and by the fact that need for sustainable materials is so great across many industries hard to store in so you re feeling the stream psychosis. this was labeled creates urban bags for environmentally conscious transponders and if their bags ever go out of style they can always just compost
