John Brennan= KING of the hell bound brayers. This will go on until it doesn't, Johnie Boy. We know what you have done, have the evidence, and are going to bring you squealin' & cryin' before a tribunal. All decent people eagerly await the day.
I don't see how you determined it to be a drone. All you've got is callsign & Mil., speed, altitude, lat/long. Did I miss something.
No they don't.
That is a stock image chosen by ADSB when the aircraft type cannot be determined.
Sample drone caps attached. (july 2018)
Do you notice something about the altitude at which drone Global Hawk UAVGH000 flies?
I'm not going to argue, but if you post idiotic stuff pretending to be a planefag, people are going to call you on it.
Also if you post more than 10 posts per bread, people are going to think you're a shill.
Word to the wise.

Are you aware how the ADSB system works?
Civilian-operated receivers on the ground pick up digital signals incidentally received from plane transponders when interrogated by radars. They report the data over internet connections to a database server that collates the data and puts it into a map and web format.
There are numerous reasons why a certain area might seem to "go dark".
Have you looked up the range of the ADSB transponders?
Have you looked at signal strength of the planes near the edge of the area you perceive to be "going dark"?
Just sayin'
It is possible that planes turn off their transponders; that military devices block ADSB signals emitted by planes; that ground-based receivers fail to receive signals; that ground-based receivers are unable to report positions because of (accidental or deliberate or selective) internet outages; that military electronic warfare blocks specific data traversing the internet either on the way to the ADSB website or after it gets there.
Consider all the mechanisms of "not receiving ADSB data" before declaring that you know what's happening.
