Well, Mr. Douglas, if they shots down yer drone, why I can get you one for the low, low price of $100,000,000. I gits 'em at the sales the pentagon holds for the Chinese and eye-ranians.

LOL - one of my favorite shows!
More likely that Rotax 914 had the turbo waste gate stick shut from lead fouling, that caused an overboost and snapped the crank....
Or perhaps it was a demo / training situation done by Russian experts using some of the nifty new weapons Putin & Co. are providing to Iran.
That's what happened to my '54 Chevy.
I know that drones were shot down in both Afghanistan and Iraq before the US went to war with both countries.
