Re: Insurgents Hack Video Feed for Drones
this has been problem since the Drones have been in combat, we've known about it, we just figured it wasnt a Big Deal
What is scary is if we were to use these weapons against, Russia, North Keora, or China, you bet your beans they know about the problem and would exploit the heck out of it
also Russia and china have their own unmanned drones

This is a very black mark on our military decision makers.
