and it's literally legal to fly a drone there unless the airspace has been closed.

Two problems with the Popular Revolt concept. It depends on a sufficient mass of Iranians disliking the regime more than they dislike the countries that just dropped a few thousand pounds of high explosives into their neighborhoods. The Iranian...

Be selective in your reading. There's an option to ignore a thread if you choose.

Inviting a lot of speculation now, is that a good idea, Mick? I am not going to enjoy this forum much more if we keep on discussing politics over interesting debunk stuff. Just my opinion. A little more explanatory: for me this forum is a kinda...

It amazes me that Ukraine being invaded by Russia is seen by this administration as too far away to be bothered about, and no threat to America, while Iran somehow poses an existential threat to American interests and the budget to deal with it...

If CBP doesn't tell them ahead of time, the military has no way to tell who owns the drone that an Air Defense crew is looking at. Drones don't come with IFF transponders and most are built on roughly the same architectures. They literally all...

ATC tends to route civilian aircraft around any war zones where anti-air weaponry is deployed. (Recent examples include Ukraine, Venezuela, and Iran.) That laser qualifies as anti-air weaponry; so the FAA keeps air traffic away from it.

i was leaving it for reddit, but doesnt look like even reddit is interested in this topic! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- edit: duh. its likely st joseph. i knew the statue was odd...

Unless the thing you intend to hit is a misidentified civilian aircraft, like most of the 'drones' seen and filmed by witnesses in the last two years. Firing a weapons laser at a civilian aircraft may not damage that aircraft significantly, but...
