Second drone found along Ft. Morgan Peninsula

[alex054739]

0:28 - 0:33 Nice way to waste tax dollars.

[VERGIS92]

@alex054739 it's not waste, they are used to test missiles such as Patriot, and in case of war they are used to confuse enemy radars and make the enemy think he sees a real aircraft on the radar, and make them fire on the drones rather than the manned aircraft

[alex054739]

@VERGIS92 When it will fall on your house, then it will be a waste of tax dollars.

[tunigowan]

@gregboyds it is a drone non man plane

[6Quinn]

It's a firebee. They are used for target practice now days. Way back when they would fly them through enemey terrirory to set of radars thus giving away the enemys position then we would blow the shit out of them. Thats what I read anyway. I work on the shadow and don't have much experience with anything else.

[sdot18]

if thi drone killied someone, especially a child, then there is a serious problem, wht are children doing like 100 miles off shore, and even if they were what are the odds it would hit something? im pretty sure the air force wasnt shooting down drones over cities people get serious...

[xDaZJMx]

"Doesn't look like a good shot?"? For fucks sake, they took half the wing off the damn thing. I guess the woman who spoke didn't understand YOU NEED TWO WINGS TO FLY THEREFORE SHOOTING ONE WING OFF IS A PRETTY GOOD FUCKING SHOT!

[localSickened]

i would of took it to my car as soon as i saw it and drove away

[lordquiles]

thats not a drone thats a military guide practice missile

[RichardOhKaNoi]

it looks alot like theFirebee made by Ryan aeronautical co in San Diego they made them for years for the militairy for target practice.

[wiseguy8802]

Well some are way off about this but yet some are dead on!

[3852Tallen]

Get a life they did what they were supposed to do except they didn't sink. They weren't trying to bomb the trade center or anything for god's sake!

[SIGNALSTAT]

stupid twerp from louisville ky.what a dum ass.

[xXTheSomcom3Xx]

Maybe next time, my ass

[petegrimsby]

yes lets paint a SPY PLANE orange. lmfaooo very covert eh lol

[Chadzxx1]

Pretty exciting until one of those mother fuckers is heading for you and your family as your enjoying the beach!? How fucking irresponsible is that?

[KaptKan1]

Your tax dollars at waste...

[brucekirk89]

i have one at my house i stole it from the beach

[dragonracer76]

@brucekirk89 you too? bahaha

[DBSpy1]

If that hit someones car here,there would be a law suit,but in the middle east it can kill a dozen children and know one gets in trouble. What I'm saying is, are these things screwed up or is it the people that use them. Sooner or later when these things kill our kids,people wont be laughing and people will react much different to them than they are here. And I don't know about you,but a kid is a kid to me.

[newmanfrigan]

Made to kill eveyones children,including&mayb especially our own.WorldRebellion now.Luchamos for corporate rightwing fascism2go foreverGive us back our land,destiny,freedom,money stolen2solidify USgenocide regime.tsunami of militarism, xenophobia, racism, lust for violence, politics festeing like plague.We see we have been marked for elimination.But left alone the top .1% will eat each other alive. BTW,these ar just 50's target missiles.It is FUCKING INSIPID.

[KJamesMr]

@DBSpy1 You all are CRAZY!!!!! It is indeed a ballistic drone that is only powered for a short time over the ocean, 100s of miles away from shore. They are used while pilots practice maneuvers in their fighter jets. They have no explosives and when the solid rocket fuel is spent, then the aircraft is basically an empty shell of an aircraft built of aluminum and titanium. thats all. You idiots that are saying that its a conspiracy or that they are used to kill kids need to educate yourselves!!!!!

[monned111]

@KJamesMr throw the titanium to the bottom of the ocean for safe keeping?

[THEFLESHMANN1]

@KJamesMr your crazy man china sent this shit to spy on NASA's ufo program

[jambuckerwarblast]

This is disinfo but why? this is so fake how can people buy into this crap! down with the media monkey machine!

[stellarblue51]

@candiceevans1 you don't mean the WTC do you? of course not.. That would be stupid and foolish.

[wutsgondown]

I'm going to louisville see if one of these washes up I'll take it home and mod it so I can fly with an remote control :P

[vexviper]

I would have kept it. I bet the servos are all good.

[deadmansvoice]

omg wtf is wrong with you people??? its a fucking drone you guys act like its out of this world... just comes to show how little you know about your own military when you are so schocked and awwed by an old drone like that.. other than that or that place is really really boring that you take excitment out of such things..

[BillWa]

The idea is not to destroy the drone but to damage itenough that it would kill a real aircraft. They don't sink, they are recovered. At afew mil each you don't wast them.

Oh, and I love the quality of some of the commenters. Looks like you got the Foul Language only version of the dictionary. As for the commercials, I have no problem keeping YouTube free.

[angstotheclown]

The elitists who want to murder most of the human population may be right. Thin this herd of stupid humans. Start with these idiots on the beach.

[RobinSpence100]

@angstotheclown As far as the elitie supremist asses actually it is easier to steal from the stupid. Hey maybe they figure that justifies thier thieving cold sedistic laughing psychopath criminal asses!!

[angstotheclown]

God, lets interview the stupidest woman on the beach. She feels safe. They either deliberately dropped this in the ocean or they screwed up which is far more likely and lost these things. Woops, sorry sir we lost the drones we sent up. WHAT? Where the hell are they? Somewhere out in the gulf sir, probably out of fuel now and down. WHAAAAAT??? What if some fishing boat recovers them ad they still have fuel and BLOW UP THE BOAT? I love stupid folks. Son, get next to this potential bomb for a pic!

[mgb104]

I was wondering where I left that. What do you think that the airforce has mini pilots that fly them you dumb *&ck, he said i thought someone was in trouble!

[MegaLibra1979]

ok the person who called the police must be 80 years old and thought it was the x-1 with chuck yeager in it.....lol

[yoni0063]

Wow, what a spectacular observer that lady "Pat Ball" must be.... "It doesn't look like they made a good shot on it" LOL, it's missing a bloody wing and wasn't flying.. What does she expect... typical civilian perception... only based on what she sees on her TV set..

[PS2djX]

ahah so strange XD , big ass for peoples in the bick , is high tech and so expensive

[shellback1970]

OK so its a target drone BFD.I was stationed on an air craft carrier and we used to shoot at drones like this one all the time..It is hard to retrive them once you blow a big hole in them. they usually sink out right..One floating to shore has got to be very rare..i hope they repaired and reused them.

Instead of being shocked they should be glad our military is practicing hitting a drone..training is essential to our security..

[RedDawnJensen]

@shellback1970

Wait.. we still use GUNS to shoot down goddamned AIRCRAFT??

I DONT WANT TO KNOW THESE THINGS

[shellback1970]

@RedDawnJensen Well if you want to call a MK 15 Phalanx a gun....sure

[drybone12]

@RedDawnJensen because GUNS are still more reliable when your in a fighter and your outta missiles you use GUNS

[callmemrfixit]

"doesn't look like a good shot?" It's fucking crashed and in the ocean!

[hchia17]

Nothing big should have kept is and rebuild it and use it on a few idiot I know

[actonbath]

There is one of those NE of Crocker, NM. Found it off roading on my motard last summer out in the middle of nowhere land. Thought it was a missle. It is in really good shape, wonder if it is worth anything besides scrap.

[garygerman13]

If its still there, contact the USAF.  These things can be rebuilt and used again.

[hellomedude]

they probably arent telling us what it really iz. Its mostly military bs

[Inquisitor53]

It IS a target drone and a rather old one at that. From '68 or '70. As a senior gunner of the army's chaparral missile system (the army's version of the sidewinder) for fast, low-flying threats, it was part of my training to help construct a few before being allowed to launch missiles to blast the drones out of the sky. It was fun, seating in an enclosed turret knowing I had two missiles on each side of me less than three feet away from each shoulder.

[skhan66]

@Inquisitor53 I'm sorry to say you are wrong, You may be thinking of the older version build of aluminum . This ones entire body is built of composite materials . Built in 2003 onwards, cost is roughly 3/4 mil. It is what they say , used for target practice by fighter pilots.

[Inquisitor53]

Roger that. Aluminum ones was the cheaper build & probably easier to assemble back in my day.

Composite-builds are more realistic & I can understand keeping up with technology, but $750,000! DAMN!

I think I could build one for 1/5 the price! It wouldn't have all the bells & whistles but damn, it's a drone!

[garygerman13]

BQM-167A built by Composite Engineering Inc. First flown in air to air exercise Feb. 2007. 'Official' USAF cost estimate is $570, 000 per unit.

[revandarklordsith]

i hate the lady that said that she happy that the military is active and that they didnt do a good job on taking out the practice drones for training........Its not called a training drone for nothing! THE WERE TRAINING! AND THE GOAL IS TO DESTRY OR DESABLE THE AIRCRAPH, IF IT CRASHED THEN I SAY THEY DID DO A GOOD JOB ON TAKING IT DOWN...bitch

[tkodawg9]

Fucking youtube is doing commercials now like TV FUCK YOUTUBE!!!!

[stellarblue51]

@tkodawg9 I agree.  YOUTUBE is totally becoming a REAL BITCH!

[jackthePS3GAMER]

@tkodawg9 your basically saying that youtube shouldn't exist if the ads were not here neither would youtube because youtube makes there money off these ads thats there only source of income so just be happy that youtube is still here besides bitching about something that is a necessity

[datzfast]

looks expensive

[Inquisitor53]

If home-made maybe $1,500 - $2,500, could be less... built for the military $7,500 - $25,000.

[tanaii1]

its not a drone its a massive dildo

[djlolypop]

wow my brother is in the airforce and thay use that for target trainning why dont thay give it to the airforce enginers to make it better or use the body for a new drone or a sub for navy

[JonathanBruner182]

Why do we allow trash to sink to the bottom of the ocean?

[bocapisces]

I guess because its easier than spending the money to retrieve it.

[JonathanBruner182]

Yeah. It's going to cost more one day though when pollution is at the point where it can't be ignored any longer

[bocapisces]

yes indeed, this will definately come back to bite them in the ass.

[MondoMedia7]

to JonathanBruner182: And how much trash do you throw out yearly?

Though so. You fail. Miserably!

[JonathanBruner182]

@MondoMedia7 I've never dumped a giant ass metal block into the ocean. I recycle and re-use. I ride a bike. I don't drink sodas, instead I've re-used the same damn water bottle for 6 months. Suck my green dick.

[MondoMedia7]

@JonathanBruner182 I read something about your attitude they call it moral balancing. You are angry at everyone else because you feel that somehow they do less than you when if fact you need to watch a show called Life After People that'll show how life will go on long after the worms eat you. The Earh doesnt care either way. hahahahahahahahahahaha

[JonathanBruner182]

@MondoMedia7 Eh almost, except before you judged me I had simply said that one day pollution will cost more to clean up than it would have taken to ensure proper disposal. I'm not angry at the way people pollute and waste, I'm saddened. And really, man? The world keeps on spinning after I die?

[Arrow69hunter]

@JonathanBruner182 Here is a little info on trash, and our Oceans. Most of it (trash that is) is floating on or just below the surface. There is an area the size of a small state in the south western pacific that is a human waste dump. I am a surfer, this pisses me off, but most people havent a clue. Peace out!!

[starboybillysynth]

@JonathanBruner182 Because there were no dumpsters handy??

[JonathanBruner182]

@starboybillysynth Somebody give this guy a thumb up

[vangion]

@JonathanBruner182 because it creates a home for coral and helps establish coral reefs and causes no damage

[fakiir]

@JonathanBruner182 why dont we shoot them down over your house instead. that will be fun.

[JonathanBruner182]

@fakiir The point isn't where they shoot them down at, it's that they are just left there.

[rtepic]

@JonathanBruner182 so it doesnt litter the beach or get in the way of the boats.

[kevindashid]

@JonathanBruner182 because we cant see down there lol

[japimportssuck]

@JonathanBruner182 my thoughts exactly.

[JustineBieberxoxo]

@JonathanBruner182 Would you like it to float along the surface?

[JonathanBruner182]

@JustineBieberxoxo You've gotta be shitting me. No.

[britnicoley]

ha ha stupid yankees what do they do in alabama lol....

[CiscoWes]

Very heavy northern accent at :33. Yep, she's from Michigan. haha!!

[Cruise2enjoy]

Interesting...Could cause a boating problem...Maybe these excercises are part of the outragous gasolene prices!
