The Lyrics
This one's for you Ivan! Northrop-Grumman has been developing a new spy UAV for almost a decade designated RQ-180 "Son of Liberty" (last part provisional). It is much larger than the last revealed RQ-170 Sentinel that operated in Afghanistan and also jammed Paki radars in the raid on Osama Bin Laden. The bigger craft has an estimated 130' wingspan and has a wide upper intake for a more powerful engine, possibly even two engines with one filtered exhaust. Paint scheme suggests ceiling greater than the Sentinel but lower than SR-series. Gray suggests 50-60,000 ft. SRs are painted black to match the sky at 80,000+ feet. The UAV carries no armament yet but has multiple sensors and cameras, is SAT-guided, and stealth masked with RAM and possibly RAS. Built in Palmdale and spotted above Area 51.

remarkable bit of uninteresting and pointless prose
Not anymore or any less pointless than the majority of authors here writing about the mundane things of life, zombies, and the latest news and sports scores. But you are entitled to your opinion. I'm willing to bet that with a walk-around that you still couldn't tell the diffence between the MQ-1, MQ-8, RQ-170, and RQ-180 or in fact a range of foreign UCAVs from Europe, Russia, China, and Israel. I can easily and have. Happy holidays :)
