walshie 2,804 Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Just been up the coast road past the MOD place and they've got the drones out in force today. They all look the same to me, but i saw black ones, white ones and purple ones. Is there a significance to the colours? Be a bit of a giveaway to possible enemy forces if there was.

Born Hunter 17,763 Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 The RAF fleet is based at Waddington and pretty sure the entire fleet is deployed in the Middle East. Leaving me to believe they're Army drones. Dunno about colour but might help if we could figure out some details.... What base is it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 You on about the base at Aberporth Dai? If so it's an R&D centre not an operational base. They will be testing new systems and stuff, not training using operational aircraft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps they painted them different colours to tell them apart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not much use demonstrating a new aircraft to a potential buyer if they can't see the thing once it's up in the air! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
