It’s puzzling why there aren’t more airship drones for urban use. That is, guided balloons that would just sit over a city, digitally recording all vehicle and foot traffic for days.
Its purpose is not real time action, but to be able to record when an incident takes place, where the bad guys have come from, and where they go after the incident. This would compromise every building and vehicle used by the terrorists.
Without such buildings a vehicles, they are neutralized, and just need to be picked up.
If the Air Force does not get more fully with the UAV program, they are going to lose control over them to the Army... Just like they did with armed helos.
Oh wait, ICE has just ONE Reaper there...! Oh....
It’s cool that they can “fly” them from locations in the States—but does anyone know WHY they do that.
Even with sattelites, there has to be a slight delay in transmitting the signals for flight manouvers and guns.
Thanks neverdem.
