Isn’t shooting down a propeller driven drone like shooting down a Cessna 172? Hardly a feat worthy of bragging about.

The MQ-9 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is slow and defenseless.

Ah...but this article is about the RQ-4. The Global Hawk is driven by a jet. Still, it is defenseless and relatively slow.
