why don’t we use drone/spy satellite to monitor enemies planting roadside bombs?
we have these hi-tech gadgets which should be utilized to safe-guard the lives of our troops.don’t tell me it costs too much.don’t tell me we don’t have enough man-power.that is unacceptable excuse!if we utilize these advanced tech 24 hours a day,we should be able to spot unusual activities of our enemies planting bombs on the roads that our troops travel.then we can avoid casualties!
Satellites cannot fly around in space like an airplane. It take a lot of time to move one into an area for photos. The satellites continue to orbit the earth and can only stay over an area for a couple of minutes. The enemy know this and can calculate when they will be overhead. They just wait till its gone and go plant the bombs.
The Drone planes that can stay aloft for long periods of time are very expensive. The number required to cover all the roads in Iraq would be extremely high. The military just doesn’t have the money to purchase and operate that many Dromes. Remember it’s not just the cost of the Drones themselves. You have to buy the control centers and additional equipment to operate those centers. Then you need to hire more soldiers and train, feed them, pay them and provide all the other benifits they get. VERY COSTLY!
