Incredibilmente potente e .... controverso ....

This All-Seeing Spy Drone Can Detect the Slightest Disturbance ....

As Maggie Ybarra explains, high-flying Global Hawk is incredibly powerful — and controversial.

It can track ships at sea, sense the slightest change in the dirt and even take the temperatures of forests and crops.

It’s the giant Global Hawk spy drone from U.S. manufacturer Northrop Grumman — and it’s making the world a very dangerous place for terrorists, insurgents and international criminals … and a better place for scientists.

But that doesn’t mean the Global Hawk is without its detractors.

The U.S. Air Force, in particular, has mixed feelings about the drone — for reasons that are not entirely clear but could have something to do with an even more capable secret Unmanned Aerial Vehicle.
