Northrop Grumman is in the news again.
See Aircraft Maker Pushing Exports of Spy Drones in the New York Times.
Because of the success of unmanned drones in Iraq and Afghanistan, Northrop Grumman is looking at exporting this technology to Japan and ". . . other countries considering adding the plane to their air forces are South Korea, Australia, Singapore, Britain, Spain, New Zealand and Canada. Germany has already contracted for a variant called the EuroHawk to be delivered this year."
It is NOT a problem "despite concerns that exports might send sensitive technology into the wrong hands" AND the use of such drones might "also heighten tensions with countries like China, Iran and Russia -- who could be the subject of closer observation and perceive the drones' operations as offensive threats."
Disclaimer: SORRY - This is only what I know from my point of view. No lies, just what I see as the truth.
