The Armed Forces received mysterious ADM-160 Mald Drones from the United States for starting from aircraft. Details tell the Military Portal Defense Express.

The small size of drones allows them to place: "The very fact of having American jet drones-" bait "ADM-160 Mald at the disposal The air forces can be a carrier - it is still unknown, " - writes Analysts of Defense Express.
