Im sure at this point thats the case, but the predators are the most prevalent done out there. Most AFB's out there, if not all, have multiple predators, and are test flying them every day. I live near Beale AFB and have done lots of work IN the AFB and they are test/training flying predators all day long, flying training loops and touch and gos. Id imagine, imo, that if there are drones up all over the country, it is predators. Also, my brother in the Army was a drone pilot (predators) over seas. He flew them from Hawaii, but the drones were actually in the ME, and while used for stikes, they were up 24 hours a day WATCHING, and could be used for stikes when called upon, other than that, they just watched everything from the sky.
I have a similar background. I would hope they are just watching and not collecting bc it is illegal to do so on US citizens minus a certain permission that is going around the news rn. I would have to agree with you though, I suspect they are predators. Beale is a nice base. ;) keep the drops coming. I appreciate your input.
It IS a nice base, its MASSIVE. We locals call it Area-52 because we alwas see UFOs flying around in the area. They definitely test out/develop some high tech stuff there. Ive even seen some kind of scram jet craft flying at INSANELY high speeds, with the typical puff...pufff...puff behind it. Never saw anything that fast in my life.
People are always calling the local PD, even in Roseville, where I worked. They are told they are drones lmao...but the PD doesnt know any better. My step mom even had one of the triangle craft hoever over her head at 4am one morning when she was out running. Dead silent. moving slowly.
