Stupidity seems to be highly contagious.

My sentiment exactly.

One has to wonder how the enemies of freedom like Kim Jung Il, Hugo Chavez and Barack Obama feel about the Brits going backwards in terms of their National Security.

Love the low-cost COIN aircraft ideas, but....if we’re doing to props, then mightn’t we look even further ahead..?

1. Take out the pilots

2. Make it air-2-air refuel capable —keep it on-station for days, maybe a week...

3. Provide for very secure FAC commo

4. Exploit the new advances in 70mm guided rockets; 4 for every hellfire —that could be 64 guided weapons on one UAV platform.

5. Explore feasibility of low-cost remote 50-cal weapon on UAV, or 30 mm (think very small unmanned AC130 substitute)
