Georgian UAVs on my mind

by Alex Harrowell

Just a note on the Georgian/Abkhaz/Russian situation: the Abkhazians claim to have destroyed another drone, with a formidable Russian SAM system (NATO = SA-11). (H/T: Wired.) If the Russians have really given them one of these or possibly even these, they must mean it.

    I do not think they destroyed another drone. Abkhazia currently is a very active puppet separatist area which is using battle proven Russian PR tactic: Lie, lie and then lie some more.
