Narrative:
Shortly after being given a vector to intercept the localizer inbound on the ILS 18L into cvg; I saw a drone pass under our left wing (estimated around 100 ft. Of clearance). Immediately after seeing the drone I reported the sighting to ATC (cincinnati approach control). No evasive maneuvers were needed; nor any deviations from ATC instruction were needed.
