Submission + - US Air Force to launch a new drone

Submitted by pestario on Friday April 20, 2007 @05:50PM

pestario writes: The US Air Force announces next version of the highly successful unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) — The Predator. The Predator is known to have played a major role in eliminating many terrorist targets in Yemen and Iraq.

The new version, called The Reaper, is 'about a third longer, and twice as heavy, than the Predator.' And while the Predator is designed to carry 2 hellfire missiles, the Reaper will carry 14 hellfire missiles. Wired has the coverage.

Attacking drones — as opposed to reconnaissance drones — have been controversial due to the disconnected nature of remote combat they provide.
