#1 I'm waiting for Fighter Drones (UAVs) whose job it is to shoot down enemy drones. Doesn't need a sophisticated armanent - a shotgun (sawnoff?) would do the trick.

#2 ... along with surface-to-surface missiles with a range of 70 kilometres and anti-aircraft shells.

The mullahs must be feeling frisky if they're up to publicly bragging about arming terrorist organizations.

#4 Merely one more gold-plated reason for Israel to launch an attack against all of Iran's nuclear facilities. In no way has Iran subordinated their avowed intention of destroying Israel. The time is long overdue for Iran to realize what sort of pricetag is attached to vocally threatening and waging war by proxy against a well equipped and nuclear armed nation.

#5 Doesn't need a sophisticated armanent - a shotgun (sawnoff?) would do the trick.

The recoil would be a bitch in a light airframe. Rockets or some sort of recoilless arrangement would be better.

Or, hell, just give it a laser for designating the other plane for a missile to hit.
