So for a little while now I've been hunting an unknown UAV (with very little luck). However, due to time constraints, and limited net access I'm having to stop the hunt on my end. I'm looking for some folks that might be interested to help the search with me.
The UAV in question was flying around the time that the RQ-170 was discovered. In 2007, the "Beast of Kandahar" was spotted flying around the area. Reports included U-2 pilots stating that they saw a UAV flying near their own altitude, with no warning from the E-3 controlling the airspace. Which is interesting, because there's no evidence that the RQ-170 is high altitude capable.
There were several companies designing UAVs that would involve using some engines that NASA has in storage. As near as I have found, those were shipped to Moffat Field several years ago.
So, who is up for the latest snipe hunt?
