May? May give away secrets??

I think this was a intelligence coup for the Chicoms, Russians, and Iranians. I don't believe the official story in the least. Iranians shoot down a stealth drone and recover it mostly intact? BS, they got that thing delivered gift wrapped. All that was missing is the bow.

Decades and billions of dollars worth of stealth tech delivered in a day. Great job Obama!!!

There are several ways to look at this:

1. If the drone really fell into Iranian (i.e., Russkie, Chicom) hands, then its stealth technology wasn't really that good after all.

2. Maybe the Chicoms will sell us their copies of the drones at a cheaper price than we pay for them now.

3. The U.S. ahould only have "self-destruct stealth technology" drones fly into enemy territory.

4. The U.S. could have put all kinds of "super-secret," "stealth," and "sensitive materials" stickers on a non-stealthy drone and flown it into enemy territory to be shot down, thus confusing the enemy on our capabilities.

5. In order to get the chance to investigate the drone, the Chicoms will trade all kinds of military know-how and kgs of special nuclear material to the Iranians only to discover, when they check out the drone's electronics, the parts are all "Made in China."

Is it me or each time a Dem is in power a stealth aircraft or team falls in the hands of the enemy?

F117 in kosovo with Clinton, Balckhawk down, the heli involved in Bin Laden, Seal Team6 crash and now the Beast of Kandahar RQ170 itself?
