CNN's "expert" is an idiot. Heron is NOT the size of an airliner.... 737's wingspan is more than double that of Heron, and the 737 has a max takeoff weight almost 62 times more than the Heron. Yes, it might reach Iran, but let's get some facts right CNN instead of just stirring the pot.
I hope that one day the Iranians can vote for real .....
I hope one day that Iranian women can be treated as human beings ....
I hope that one day the Iranian leaders interpret the Koran for truth and stop funding attacks on kindergartens and schools of Sunni and Kurdish muslims children ....
Attack against Iran is just a bluff. Iran is the most powerful country in middle east. Nobody is able to attack Iran. Israel is an illegal country should give up occupation of Palatine.
Effin' Iraq was able to fight a stalemate war for 10 years against Iran. It took the United States weeks to destroy essentially the entire Iraqi army.
Israel is the most powerful force in the middle east. It has proven that time over time. I mean, even a sneak attack on the holiest day in the Jewish faith by multiple nations failed to destroy Israel.
@zippo807 Competitor? Anka? anka even didnt had maiden flight yet, secondly Anka wingspan is 14m while Heron TP 26m, Anka effective payload is 150kg heron TP is 2000kg, so where is the competition?
I dont know about that, we were using Firebee drones in vietnam long before these fancy schmancy UAV's of today. The only thing these modern ones beat it in is duration (Firebees used a jet engine) and smaller size.
I guess you're right though, develop by the need, not adapt with what you got. Especially when it comes to stuff like UAVs.
@peepeevagi First of all Firebee are target drone nothing comparable to Global Hawk/Heron TP role. Firebee superior to Heron TP only by service ceiling and speed, they several generation apart.
Firebees were used for Reconnaissance too. Heck, they were used as recent as the invasion of iraq (dropping flares i think). But i'm just saying, as far as a big UAV goes, that Heron is beat. Firebees are no longer in service though, so i guess it dont really matter.
@maydayfire hmm donated because USA bought it from us? so no its not donated... our UAV are soo god that every modern army in the world buys from us. Even turkey. btw Israel gets only 2 billion dollars to buy american made weapon platfrom while egypt gets over 10 billion...and they have fucking tank factory in there = less work for USA workers. get your facts before your post man..you sound like a moron.
@maydayfire lets do a simple math.. if Israel buys an airplane from US and not from lets say europe (eurofighter typhoon) who thinks will get money? yeah..the workers in USA. its a win win situation. furthermore, who makes the best anti-ballistic missile in the world? yeah..Israel. Who gonna use its technology to defend itself? yeah USA. I dont see the arab states making something that other countries will use. they are only leeches. draining money without giving back.
@AirZone19 you are ignorant because you are unaware of the annual donations of US govt to israel terror state in the billions. israel is nothing without mommy USA breast feeding it and changing its diapers!
@maydayfire Im ignorant?! heh..you cant contradict what I told you so you just trash-talking like good old jihadist lover. go lie to someone else. Allies help each other!!! Allies using each other technology to get better. anyhow if you forgot history before 73 we did quite well. we had weapon platform from other countries. It has nothing to do with USA or lets say russia that helps the arabs. Its about the people that fight with the weapons. and what I can say, we are far better and stronger..
@maydayfire btw dont you think that having USA as allies is the best in the world, everything has it prices... like my stupid prime minister who have to dance with obama stupid ass plans. or that we cant sell our weapons to many countries around the world. like I said, you win some, you lose some. but hell at least we are giving some thing back to USA economy and military. the arabs are just leeches and are just good at taking and not giving back. ask yourself how much moneys goes to them...
@maydayfire btw, its 2.25$ billion this year (2009-2010) and really its nothing. Israel budget of defence is around $13.3 billion. Think how much gear we have and understand that 2.25$ is from buying mostly airplanes and it gives people in america lots of work. what about all the spare parts?its from our money. and how do you think america have so much ammo for iraq&afganistan. yeah, Israeli Ammo... or what do you think the Iraqis are using? also, Israeli ammo... and im the ignorant heh?
@maydayfire btw - I call the ops as defending ourselves you call it terror. I call bombing a bus full of kids (in my city where my friends died) or shooting rockets at kindergarden as terrorist act you might call it a freedom fighter resistance. its all about point of view. luckly im not blind and hatefull like you.
You can stick your American money deep in your ass hole. We don't need it and I asure you that Israel is successful enough, thank God, even more than the US reletivity.
America helps Israel but don't forget how much Israel helps the US, saving your American ass without you being aware of it.
i see your a depeche mode fan, maybe you should try listening to the words of "people are people", what's up with the hostiality, i just pointed out a fact, if you don't like it, tough, because it's the truth.
Look who's talking. Maybe you should try listening to Israel, which has no hostility towards no one who doesn't try to kill us all the time. Maybe you should send Depeche Mode to Gaza, let's see if the Hamas would connect to the words. I think DM will be kidnapped for ransom.
Your pointless "fact" was said only to make yourselff and others to be hostile towards Israel, which you probably know only by distorted facts or just plain lies. So stop being a hypocrite.
I am not the hostile one or the state of Israel. I just get angry when some one talks like you, blaming Israel for "stealing" the money of the American tax payer. I know what you meant and what your point was. Maybe you are not one, but Anti-Semites building their arguments on this kind of shit.
I just don't want people to hate Israel for absolutely nothing but lies and hate.
It's terrorism because it is meant to convey the threat of death from above to anyone at anytime. At any moment they could be struck dead. I realize they are precise, but you're fooling yourself if you don't think it kills and makes civilians live in fear.
Terror is terror if an unorganized army is murdering innocents DELIBERATELY. If a defensive weapon like this doesn't target civilians, only weapons, it is not terror. It is tactics. Haven't you heard the term "deterrence"?
Well, Israel needs it the most because we are being threatened daily by crazy fanatic Islamists.
Those civilians, the sane ones, in Iran or else where, shouldn't give a monkey like Ahmadinajad to take power and start building nuclear bombs, saying to "wipe Israel of the map"
because, when you drop cluster bombs ans white phosphorous in children you are a war criminal and you should NEVER show your face, lest you be caught on a hotel security camera.
Only a coward hides his face and only a craven, criminal society makes her military hide theirs. When I was in the US Army, I was never told to hide my face.
Is that thing Pollution free or they trying to Not be so Green anymore. We have to Recycle but blowing things up for Military isn't a big deal while trying to save the environment?
WW3 will start sooner or later... Now that the US has 170 bases accross the world, making war in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan... it has already begun and by not making them stop, we are saddly enabling it. On another point, Israel and many other countries who aren't supposed to have nuclear weapons, all have them. Why would they be afraid of any other countries having them ? I think they are just afraid of a leveled political/military playing field, cowards and dictators are like that.
Zionist build yourselfs some big ships so you can move all them zionist parasites off Arab land! Zionist are beggars . getting money from american and germany britain acting like they some important "nationality in this world" You zionist will always be beggars nothing else till zionism is wiped off the holyland like the grime it is! Zionist are phony people looting this plant.
Israeli technology will always defeat those countries that have their head in the sand.
