Global Hawk Grows Up

Manned military aircraft took another step closer to obsolescence with the unveiling of the new variant of the Global Hawk-- the unmanned aerial vehicle credited with taking out more than one Jihadist big wig. It's 50 percent larger, carries 50 percent more payload and an improved radar system.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
