Have you ever been in the battle field and get shot at..?
this is not a "glider", but a test design of a powered Unmanned Arial Vehicle (UAV) based on a glider design with an engine attached.. the "test pilot" was there as a safety pilot.. There are dozen's of UAV designs and sizes, each with their own "combat mission" and used every day to collect information on the battle field.. and to keep the ground based operator with remote controlled sensors out of harms way. BT "bagmaker" wrote in message ... Thankfully the pilot is OK, but for me, another ship in the skies to avoid is one thing, a glider without a pilot is technology without need. Can someone explain to me the benefit of this weapon? http://tinyurl.com/yckmho Bagmaker -- bagmaker |
