Anyone wondering why there's the focus on drones? Maybe it because of this

That's just an evil weapon. It will be a sad day for aviation when that goes into operational use. Imagine being the first pilot to get shot down by that. It will be like being Porkins in Star Wars

I thought immediately of 'Ace Combat- The Belkan War' with the ADFX-02.
Imagine having an aircraft equipped with this!- like a lightsabre scything the sky!

Some news on the UAV scene. Iran have unveiled an unmanned bomber. Their president dubbed it "A messenger of Honor and human generosity"

http://articles.latimes.com/2010/aug...drone-20100823

Surely the strangest description of a combat aircraft in history

Also it appears an unmanned helicopter decided to violate Washington airspace
