Reaper! Excellent news!

But with all these new UCAVs coming out all over the world I’m worried that we’re going to run out of cool names for new ones within as little as fifteen years. After that they’re all be called “Edsel” or “Marvin”.

Cool plane, but it needs a grinning shark mouth and mean eyes painted on the nose.

Also, putting the Blüe Öyster Cült emblem on the wings would be neat.

That is all. Secure from General Quarters.

Nah, the suits will just start calling them "Predator II" or "Reaper II" and the troops will give them useful names like "toad-sticker" or something...
