Useless Ish

Looks like a toy, doesn’t it?  If all goes well, the Uganda People’s Defence Forces will own it to conduct “intelligence-gathering missions along its borders.”

This is the unmanned air vehicle, the Mini Falcon I UAV, from Israeli company, Innocon.  The World Aeronautical Press Agency reports that the Ugandan government is considering the purchase of the Mini Falcon I UAC.

The Mini Falcon is capable of real-time surveillance and intelligence.  It has a wingspan of five meters and has a maximum launch weight of 85 kilograms.  It can operate for 12 straight hours.  It is capable of unmanned take off and landing.

There you go.  Another set of useless facts delivered straight to you for … well, for whatever.

 You are welcome.

  3. Hi,

    Not surer whether you can help me but I thought that I would try. I am looking for a friend of mine Wally Manchur. Well I am looking for his grave actually he was shot and killed at his house down near the Entebbe Road in 83. I am just wondering if you have any idea where expats might get buried in Uganda. Any help would be much appreciated. I am due to be in Kampala in a couple of days time and I would like to look him up. We had some interesting times together there in 1980.

    regards

    Peter
