That thing isn't stealth and doesn't use a rocket engine. It's a Ryan Firebee.

It's a target drone used in fighter jet training, for weapons reliability proving. The missile explodes before it hits the drone. The parachute deploys and the drone is recovered from the ocean. 

It's definitely a target drone. Spy drone, what a doofus.

Boooooooom!!!!!!

It looks a lot lie the X-1, the first plane to ever break the sound barrier. Google it and you will see.

well it looks like a cruise missile but I guess it could be a target drone. I dunno....

fuck all government those fuckin terrorist piece of shits need to mind there own bizz period

Target drone. U.S.A.F. uses them all the time during live fire exercises. Hence the bright orange color. I see there's quite a few intelligent people commenting here who weren't duped by the paranoid spring breakers. Have another beer breakers, nobody is trying to sneak up on you.

Seriously? If you're going to make an X-1 replica, then don't make it like this. Dumbass.

lmfao. spy drone? thats a target drone.

That's a Bell X-1 replica, dumbasses. I facepalmed the second i saw it

it's just an r/c plane,,,,

that looks like the first super sonic jet

Aye, no armed or recon drone would be that primitive, and a cruise missile would have more stubby wings.

@olgunan I agree, its a target drone

Well, it is a drone. If I had to guess from Tyndall or Eglin AFB. They are used to train pilots in air to air combat. Not a cruise missile and not a spy plane.

Not a drone

Sellin' it on eBay... geez what is wrong with people. I'd have that thing taken apart and the pieces cataloged by sundown, the basic systems reverse engineered by end of week, and my own spinoff tech on the boards shortly thereafter. I'd hopefully have some test flight vids up for the DragonLink contest on RCG by two weeks total time. eBay my ass. ;-)

Quick take it home, hang it in your bedroom. Problem pentagon?

Strange how you took my uncle serfernaya board from Russia

Ha my parents work there

That looks like a cruise missile, not a drone.

i'm pretty sure these are pirate ghosts.

if it isn't flying the thing is dead. these are inexpensive rocket planes so pilots can train shooting a target with real bullets or missiles... don't imagine retrieving some top secret component or circuit because it's basically the common motors controller you'll find on a hp deskjet with an UHF receiver ontop for the most modern versions.

no, not really, especially if they hit the water going 100 or 200+ miles per hour
