5. Our drone goes down and he asks Iran to hand it back??????!!!!!???? WTF. And how did the drone go down in Iran? What was it's mission? Why is that picture of the drone show that it is not even scratched? Did he give it to them? Maybe he thinks that if we worked with Iran, then they will be nice.

the drone was missing its landing gear, the entire bottom of it might be totally wrecked, the back end is missing, it has visible dents, and the wings might have been reattached.
it was designed to land by itself if it loses contact with its operator (its supposed to return to its point of origin however).

Iranians are saying that they hijacked the drone and had it land on their soil. And will gather info, and sell it to their friends. The drone was compromised.
"Iranian electronic warfare specialists were able to cut off communications links of the American bat-wing RQ-170 Sentinel, says the engineer, who works for one of many Iranian military and civilian teams currently trying to unravel the drone’s stealth and intelligence secrets, and who could not be named for his safety.
Using knowledge gleaned from previous downed American drones and a technique proudly claimed by Iranian commanders in September, the Iranian specialists then reconfigured the drone's GPS coordinates to make it land in Iran at what the drone thought was its actual home base in Afghanistan."

well if you want to believe habitual liars. they also said they shot it down first...and theyve "shot" down countless other american drones too.

no, i don't believe what they say, but we do have to investigate this. Was it just a software failure? Is it outdated like the article seem to suggest?
