One pilotless reconnaissance plane disappeared over Lebanon
(1)
"The "Israeli" Army admitted Tuesday that one of its pilotless reconnaissance
planes, known as drones, had disappeared over Lebanon.
"The "Israelis" deploy drones over Lebanon on an almost constant basis to provide real-time TV images of movement on the ground. Their high-pitched whine is a familiar sound in the south, although the drones usually fly at an altitude that makes them inaudible and invisible.
"They can be used to detect resistance fighters in the field, allowing helicopter gunships or warplanes to attack the guerrillas before they know they have been spotted.
"Drones can also been used to relay radio signals to trigger explosive devices. Drones were in the skies above Sidon when Ali Deeb, the Hizbullah military official, was killed in a double roadside bomb blast last month".
