Biggest US drone. Looks like a whale.

1. Oh, that's gonna leave a mark.

Probably costs more than that elementary school they're going to tear down and rebuild in Texas.

2. Simply Amazing

Thank you for this posting. I enjoyed the very informative and easy-to-view video. Also, I had no idea those craft were as old as they claimed nor was I aware of their overall size and their extreme capabilities.

6. I did a few months in Afghanistan about 10 yrs ago

Never saw this drone, but the Predators were pretty common and even they were much bigger than I’d imagined. I’d see them on the runway taking off and even those were the size of a small private plane. I guess I had the idea they were small like the recreational drones I’d seen in the US. Of course there’s no reason they can’t be as big as anything else and if you don’t have to worry about a human pilot there’s more room for fuel and gear.

Makes me wonder of the shit works any better than the TRC-24 shit we had to work with in the '60s

5. Global hawk has been busy

It’s amazing what you can learn from FlightAware…Global Hawks have been flying a lot of missions over the Black Sea since Russia invaded Ukraine.
