Predator


Predator has really been improved.

Newest models fly at 50,000 ft, etc.

Some excellent pics and videos here.

Mankind should works as hard at helping folks as developing ways to snuff them out.

Nothing new, Predators have been around since 1995.

My brother was on a Navy carrier.

You do not want to know what the public is not aware of.

This probably won't get the feds after me.

But, the Navy subs microphones can hear shrimp snapping on the bottom of the ocean.

I managed the Oracle databases for the PredatorA and PredatorB Programs at GA-ASI.
15 Million and you had to buy two planes and one Ground Control Station.

The GCSs ran Windows XP back in 2000.

Arrow

So, in comparison: the ones firing them get paid just enough to start college, the ones getting hit by them get paid just enough to stay alive and WE still don't think should educate kids before parents and human nature?
