Drones vs Pirates

From BotJunkie: "The US military is now using MQ-9 Reaper drones to track suspected pirate ships in the Indian ocean. That’s track, not attack, but the MQ-9 is specifically designed to carry weaponry, so it’s the logical next step. Throw some ninjas and zombies in there somehow, and we’ve got the greatest movie ever made." [via AUVSI] [Photoshop goof pic from BotJunkie]

    Somalis ordered EasyStars 2 months ago.
    So this is 'fighting the last war'.
  • It is high time, For past 1 year since this somali pest trouble started , I was wondering as what happened to all that highly efficient Mil UAVs doing?!?. After all it is cheaper to fly one of these than using war ships to petrol thousands of sq.k.m Well hope they have some peace time/ non conflict zone use too.:)

    Chuck Norris does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Chuck Norris goes killing.

    If they add Chuck Norris, then it's by by black market!
