An Iranian UAV was able to circle a U.S. aircraft carrier undetected
for 25 minutes.

With U.S. forces making increasing use of UAV's, the inevitable
question becomes:

How can we protect our forces against UAV's when other countries or
terrorist
organizations start using them against us?


Was the Iranian "UAV" a small drone like ours,or was it a FULL-SIZE
aircraft that was remote controlled?

most likely it was a genie out of some Persian story, and dreamed up by some
Russian journalist.

Assumptions like that get people killed.

Underestimating an enemy, or potential enemy, is a very dangerous thing to
do.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.

So is overestimating one and acting on that. Just think how much
money you could spend to counter Potemkin Villages....
