    Shows how much you know. There's always been a storm in the political scene here. It's called democracy and change. I doubt you understand that concept. Anyway, ROFL "allah akbar" over shooting down an RC plane."
    My thoughts exactly

    if you consider 50 bucks expensive !!

    I'd say about 5grand a pop easily if it has a good camera."
    lol know its costs like 500 maybe max."
    A single Raven costs about $35,000 and the total system costs $250,000 but that is a cheap OH-58C, Brown said.

    I'm sorry, I didn't intend on "disproving" any of the claims of the video, I was merely offering a hypothetical alternative. I had just read the quote regarding the sensitivity to electronic countermeasures and I added it as I found it interesting. To be honest, I didn't think about how my introduction to the quote would be construed by a reader. Perhaps in future, I'll just link to the source without adding an introduction...

    And to answer your question, no, I do not deny the efficacy of IEDs, as evidence suggests otherwise.

    But that been said, some IED videos on this site are misrepresented by the attached description and definitely do not achieve what is claimed.

    Yea, its so cheap, I bet most people here dont even make that in a year, let alone pay that amount in taxes."
    That really surprises me as ive built and flown several of these and own some cameras that can be mounted on them, i can only think the extra equipment that the military obviously carries,the chargers built in to hummv's etc are added into the cost because the plane itself can be built for a couple of hundred with high end servos and rx's!!

    LOL this vid was too funny, even if they did shoot it down, which i dont see anything that definitively says they did, it makes me laugh to see they raise it up and yell god is great. I mean come on, its a RC airplane with a video camera, raising it up like some kind of trophy is just foolish. They should of poked it some shown it to the camera and then started shredding it with their guns. lol, not raise it in the air and say Alla Snakbar"

    Why are you guys smoking? it has no wings."
    They would just fall off when it hit the ground. They're very cheap little RC planes thrown together from a backpack.

    They need to load them with about half a pound of C4 just in case. Self destruct after Haj picks it up.

  • LOL! Thats funny!

    The little Islamic Fascist Terrorist Freak likely has no idea that those portable UAV's have built-in GPS transponders to aid in their location and positioning...

    ...I can just imagine him 1/2 hour later walking into their hideout with it and announcing to his mullah, "Hey Omar...when your done deflowering that boy for Allah, come lookie what I brought for you!..." (at which time a 500lb precision guided munition greets them from overhead)

    ...Allah Akbar from More..
