Sure, it's made out of plastic and has no computer assisted guidance, but it only has to travel a couple hundred miles. |

Probably reversed engineered from the drone we lost over there...thank Obama for making our enemies even more lethal. |

Fake...It has to be. The whole set looks like a plastic model.
But besides that, look st the nose of the aircraft.
Why would an islamic nation put 'WARNING Stand Clear' as well as it's ID number (F-313) on the sides and tail IN ENGLISH when everything else in that hanger is in Farci? |

Composites are generally used for radar stealth, probably carbon fiber and epoxy resin. That gives it the model looking appearance. It is similar to early stealth aircraft like the F-117 nighthawks, and looks also similar to the Chinese J31. F-117 J-31It is strange the Posters on the wall are in English too.

Does anybody have a problem flying military drones over a nation that Congress hasn't declared war against? US militarism has been going on since WWII and people still like blaming former presidents that do not share the same political party. The president is just the lightning rod for the people to fix blame, and it's the job of the chattering class(as Shumer put it) to divide the country along party lines, while the unelected bureaucracies that obviously dictate policy continue to run the country. |

Just one thing. I believe the CIA operates the drone attacks. The CIA is not supposed to be military. |

Obama’s CIA pick takes heat for calling drone attacks ‘ethical and just’
The U.S. president has chosen the architect of his controversial, covert war against terrorists by Luiza Ch. Savage on Friday, February 1, 2013 1:30pm - 0 Comments
Peter Souza/White House/Reuters
He doesn’t have the profile of John Kerry, President Obama’s new secretary of state, nor the affability of the outgoing defence secretary, Leon Panetta, who was played by James Gandolfini in the film Zero Dark Thirty. But James O. Brennan, nominated by Obama to head the Central Intelligence Agency, has already been playing one of the most controversial, behind-the-scenes roles in the administration.
As Obama’s top counterterrorism adviser, Brennan, 57, oversees the targeted killing of terrorism suspects and the escalating use of armed, unmanned drones, which by some estimates have killed thousands of people, primarily in Pakistan.
Brennan leads the process by which national security officials decide who gets marked for assassination, how the evidence against them is weighed, and how legal principles are applied. He’s the one who takes the recommendations to the President. And he has been reportedly writing an internal counterterrorism playbook—guidelines for lethal strikes, whose use he has described as “ethical and just.”
Those strikes have included the killing of a U.S. citizen, Anwar Al-Alwaki, a radical Muslim cleric killed in Yemen in 2011. (His 16-year-old son was also killed in a later drone strike, although he was said not to have been the specific target.) The killing of a U.S. citizen without trial, despite constitutional guarantees of “due process of law,” in a location removed from the “hot” battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, has spawned controversy and litigation, and will likely come up at Brennan’s Senate confirmation hearings.
But controversy is not new to Brennan, who was first nominated by Obama to head the CIA in 2009. Back then, Brennan removed himself from consideration because of an outcry by liberals over his role in the top ranks of the CIA while the Bush administration embarked on its policies of “enhanced interrogation” and “extraordinary rendition” of terrorism detainees to countries with poor human rights records. (Brennan has publicly defended some of those techniques as having “saved lives,” although he has criticized the suffocation tactic known as waterboarding.) After he withdrew, Obama instead named him to his current White House job.
Now, four years later, Brennan will have his hearing. Some Republicans have signalled that they may use his confirmation to renew criticism of the Obama administration for allegedly leaking classified information to make the President look tough ahead of his re-election. From the left, the American Civil Liberties Union wants the Senate to avoid confirming him “until it assesses the legality of his actions in past leadership positions” and in his “current role in the ongoing targeted killing program.”
Meanwhile, a group of high-profile former Obama administration lawyers has publicly championed Brennan as an internal guardian of the rule of law, and as a “steadfast champion of the President’s commitment to closing the detention facility at Guantánamo.” It’ll be a hearing worth watching. |

I meant military drones in their weapons capabilities. |
