Switchblade Secretly Sent To Afghanistan
October 28, 2011: The U.S. Army recently revealed that it sent some Switchblade UAV systems to Afghanistan last year, for secret field testing. This was apparently successful. It appears that Switchblade is currently used largely by Special Forces and other special operations troops. In September, it was announced that, after a year of successful testing, the army was ordering over a hundred Switchblade UAVs for troop use.

Oh goody, and now that we're running away I suppose some of these babies will be captured, routed through cut-outs for reverse-engineered in China and introduced to our many enemies in no time flat!

Hurrah!

Day-yam!
The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living
are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.
