Post 016 - CIS 537













Early December 2011 - Iranians Capture Supersecret American Drone Surveillance Unmanned Aerial Vehicle - RQ-170



How did Iran lasso an expensive, RQ-170, top secret surveillance drone, and get the thing down intact?  Who knows?  Maybe they hacked their way into it, took control of the drone and guided it to a controlled soft landing.   http://cis537-wfs.blogspot.com/2011/12/post-015-cis-537.html  (anything is possible with software and some smart people to operate it...)
