    yes - they sent reusable into space (which, by irony, turned out to be one-time recourse ) shuttle in automatic mode, he made a flight and landing, and there is no one to create a UAV! ????? I don’t believe anything, even our Tu (flight) looked more advanced, and didn’t need aerofinisher and runway - and it could be launched from the combat area - which could increase the range, and had high speeds, I don’t think it’s Seeker (squishy it’s some) it will be able to accelerate more than 500 km / h, except that if it goes into a tailspin))))))

    I’m worried about another question, how to shoot these things, now they are flying on the first thing, and soon 1 pieces of rocket will not be big squadrons. A little expensive, you still have to get out of the machine gun.
