Ahmadinejad got a SAM Turret

12/8/2011 3:40:54 PM

Counter UAV active. They're blind.

12/8/2011 3:42:34 PM

Fail

12/8/2011 3:42:45 PM

I'm pretty sure they zeroized the motherfucker imnediately. Other than that, theres only so much that can be learned from reverse engineering part of a system.

12/8/2011 3:48:30 PM

hope theres no data remanence

Then I assume "defense experts" are also aware that just because the aircraft landed in Iran doesn't mean the insides aren't goo. It's not all that uncommon to have a system that, if it doesn't receive packets of data from a transmitter every so often, eventually just fries it's own insides. A lot of our missiles do that.

trojan horse the next one

12/8/2011 3:56:01 PM

12/8/2011 4:13:40 PM

For many reasons, I don't buy that they "knocked it down" for a second. Knocking down something this size with that small of a radar cross section would be a 1-in-a-million shot.

More realistically, the thing probably lost it's C2 link, fell to the earth, got smashed up, and the Iranians slapped some fiberglass on it, and called it a day.

A few things to note in the video...

this is probably like when china used top gun footage to demonstrate the capabilities of their dogfighting skills

i hope its got a hidden bomb in it for when some Iranian master scientist goes to tinker with the innards

12/8/2011 8:09:11 PM

Or the scientist helps repair the drone to be a better drone than it was before it was captured so that the drone can Ironman it's way back home

If this is true......

12/16/2011 5:18:07 PM

I doubt. The Iranian government spews as much misinformation as Iraq's government used to under Saddam.

12/16/2011 5:51:43 PM

uhoh.

looking like a drone doesn't make it a drone

5/12/2014 5:25:47 PM

yeah, just like that "stealth jet" they built

5/12/2014 5:26:56 PM

When have they ever been telling the truth about these stunts?

5/12/2014 5:34:05 PM

Literally - thanks, Obama!

5/12/2014 8:24:44 PM

It sure took them long enough

That thing is [old] and useless now

It would make one hell of an rc plane though

5/13/2014 9:17:58 AM

They're getting pretty good at their model aircraft building. I wonder what kit that one is?

5/13/2014 1:31:30 PM

Lets completely discredit this because we all know Iranians are too dumb to possess widely available scientific and technological knowledge

5/13/2014 6:47:14 PM

no, we discredit it because they constantly built fake shit
