The MQ-9 is the backbone of American drone aviation, just as the f16 and f35 are the backbone of American fighter jets.
The drone costs $17 million, weighs 5 tons, can fly for more than 27 hours continuously, and its superior combat capability made it the most likely aircraft to operate in #Yemen.
It appears that the drone was not hit by a missile or crashed due to a technical malfunction, and its body is very intact, the most likely possibility is that it was shot down by electronic control, which means that the Yemenis have a program to decode the drone and identify its weaknesses.
The Yemenis have shot down many of these drones in the past, and in my estimation, the frequency of their fall is related to the hot climate of Yemen and the southern desert, which affects their work and means of defense and camouflage significantly, as the Americans used them in Syria and did not fall in this quantity.
Which means that the survival of the “Donkey Guard” operation, known as the former Prosperity Guard, throughout the summer months means a greater rate of fall, and the intensity of targeting and control of almost all types of American drones that appear from the surface that some kind of electronic war is being conducted in secret that we know nothing about … but we see it in incidents that seem strange … We see it in incidents that seem strange.
