On September 19, al-Qaeda-affiliated Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen shared photos of a U.S. unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that crashed in Somalia’s Lower Shabelle region.

The UAV, identified as a Boeing Insitu ScanEagle 2, crashed of unknown causes near Ballidogle Airport, around 90km southwest of the country’s capital, Mogadishu. The UAV’s wreckage was retrieved by al-Shabaab terrorists.

The ScanEagle 2, which entered service with the U.S. military in 2014, has a top speed of 148 km/h and an endurance of more than 16 hours.

The UAV, which is mainly used for reconnaissance missions, is equipped a day and night capable sensor, a fully digital video system and an advanced navigation system.

Laster week, al-Shabaab fighters shot down a small quadcopter drone near Ballidogle Airport. The drone was allegedly being used to guard a U.S. base in the airport.

A recent report by the New York Times revealed that US Africa Command is seeking authorization to expand its drone war against Somali terrorists. The request came after al-Shabaab attack on a Kenyan air base housing U.S. aircraft in January.

apparently these LGBT drones are ineffective vs BLM and antifa arsonists

HiaNd

The LGBT drones are programed to be very sensitive on their gender. So if the operator has switched on wrong of those 60 genders the LGBT drone immediately falls down because treated as wrong gender!

New grammar for faggots? These new variants looks like “hen” – 3rd sex in swedish perverted grammar. Scandinavia is a vanguard of perverts. Hello, Jensy!

HiaNd

If only for faggots…if anybody thinks they will give up easily with keeping imposing this bullshit further and deeper in perversion and absurdity, than they are dead mistaken. First they going to legalize pedophilia, than after that any perversion one can imagine. These people are not bunch of perverts but satanists. The sickest fucks that exist on this planet and they are after global dominance over the sheeple.
