Aside from talking, MEND really needs to be looking to aquire sophisticated stuff like this UAV.



After that nobody will dream of using heavy armour, aircraft and warships against small communities.

They can get one from the Chinese, (albeit) a cheap and similar model with as much fire power.

Erm. UAV requires a monitoring station. A well trained ground crew [Like pilots] etc. All of these are provided by a company that appear to make these things exclusively for the US army. I don't remember the Chinese having Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. The only other nation that makes one I think is Israel and they wont touch the ND militant with a barge pole.

Chinese do not make one or have one for export market from what I can see is what am trying to tell you.
