Honeywell T-Hawk Micro Air Vehicle (MAV), United States of America

Honeywell T-Hawk (tarantula hawk) is a micro air vehicle (MAV) developed for the US Army as part of the Future Combat System (FCS) programme. Honeywell Aerospace is the developer and manufacturer of the MAV.

T-Hawk was designed to meet the requirements of the Class I platoon-level drone for supporting dismounted soldiers on field. The US Army deployed the MAV in Iraq in 2007. It has been in service with the US Army and US Navy Explosive Ordinance Division since then.

The T-Hawk MAV conducts aerial searches for roadside bombs and inspects suspicious targets from a close range to provide situational awareness. It offers protection to the convoys by scanning roads.

The drone can be used for various missions, including homeland security, IED defeat, target acquisition and damage assessment and civilian purposes. It was deployed extensively in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and was successful in conducting trials.

In April 2011, four T-Hawk drones were deployed at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan for conducting video surveillance and nuclear radioactivity readings, after the devastation of the plant due to earthquake and tsunami.

 Honeywell's T-Hawk is operated by the US Army and US Navy Explosive Ordinance Division.

Malaysia Military Power

Secret military development, black project and special operation News. Not for the faint hearted. Given past revelations of previously top secret military technology programs there is a good chance that some 'black' projects somewhere tinker with advanced nanotechnology applications. But, you keepers of military secrets, relax. This Spotlight is not a piece of investigative journalism into the world of military black projects. ........ok almost all are fiction lulz....and dont you know?

Parody

any humorous, satirical, or burlesque imitation, as of a person, event, etc

Satire

the use of irony, sarcasm, ridicule, or the like, in exposing, denouncing, or deriding vice, folly, etc.

Disclaimer:

If the picture doesnt have the blog address as a watermark, it means it was not edited by me. Also we intentionally photoshoped these picture in a low quality photo manipulation, because we dont want anyone to repost this as the truth.

Most of the article are not ours either. We edited it to be funny to fit nicely with the parody.TQ.

Use your common sense to differentiate the truth and the hoax.. i sometime mix it all in.

Any posting that doesnt have my name are my work and obviously the one with ikansadinmakanorang name are by him.
