Let's Learn: RQ-170 and Military Drones

If you haven't been paying attention lately, Iran has claimed to have shot down a US military drone, probably an RQ-170. It was a topic I wanted to cover for a while, so it's as good a time as any. Oh, and maybe I EMP a Stealth Bomber in this one.

I Know about it. It’s part of the X47b Navy stealth uav project. The avionics are being made in my hometown in Cedar Rapids IA. It can’t fly that fast about 500-600miles per hour; it can’t fly that high, under 5miles of altitude. It’s not scramjet engine but its engine is similar to the F-35b. It does have a bomb bay up to at least 4 missiles could have more but that is classified.

Some of those facts pretty much contradict stuff we know about it. Developed by Lockheed, but the 47 is a northrup job, unless you mean from the same contract contest.

Hold on, I gotta set this right. First of all, That probably explains why I made air quotes while talking about Iran shooting it down and then said that it probably crashed. Now this next part is important because I said "first of all"

Second of all, if you are going to correct someone try to use real words where possible.

One of these days I'm going to cite a video of yours for a research paper.

@CgPallaeon Wait until I get to stuff like the Recent African Migration theory and the Scopes Trial so it's at least in something I'm well versed in.

Alternatively: Don't quote YouTube videos for papers ever.

The truth is that he didn't listen to what I said, but the facts on the RQ-170 are sketchy at best. If you want to rail against him you need to rail against me in a way. I'm going off speculation from defense experts who have no actual line to this project. I can say that if it were flying a Pratt engine I would have heard about it by now, so that other dude is probably making shit up.

First of all Iran didnt shot it down.. Iran intercepted there wireless communication and landed the drone..you shldnt talk abt something,if you dont have the knowledge for it..
