Drones vs Pirates

Posted by Chris Anderson on November 11, 2009 at 7:00am

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]

    My point exactly, just the presence of Chuck Norris and the bad guys will put themselves into jail!

    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!
