Florida: Drone Crashes and Explodes (Videos)

A United States Air Force drone has crashed and exploded in Florida, shutting down a highway. Was it shot down out of the sky or maybe did someone hack into it and bring it down? Strangely enough, this is the 2nd time in a week that a drone has been destroyed at the same Air Force Base. Sure seems pretty dangerous having all those drones flying around in the skies, aren’t they supposed to be protecting us? According to TruthTube451 (AKA MrGlasgowTruther) in the 2nd video below, don’t blame Zimmerman…

For the second time in a week, a Drone has been destroyed at Tyndall Air Force Base, WJHG.com reports. The latest crash came Wednesday morning around 8:25 when the drone crashed alongside US 98 in the Silver Flag area on the east side of the base.
Eye witnesses say the QF 4 drone crashed while taking off, exploded and sent up a large black cloud.
Base and local police and safety officials have closed Highway 98 and are anticipating that it will remain closed for up to 24 hours.

Unmanned Drone Crashes at Tyndall Air Force Base

Posted: Jul 17, 2013 9:53 AM CST Updated: Jul 17, 2013 9:53 AM CST
An unmanned Air Force QF-4 drone, assigned here to the 53rd Weapons Evaluation Group, crashed on the drone runway during take-off at 8:25 a.m. today.  No personnel were injured during the incident.
Base and local police and safety officials have closed Highway 98 and are anticipating that it will remain closed for up to 24 hours.  This closure is being done strictly as a precautionary measure due to fires resulting from the crash and a small self-destruct charge carried on board the drone.  The status of this device is unknown however, it is powered by a short-life battery which will be fully depleted in 24 hours.
The charge is used to destroy  the drone if it leaves its pre-approved flight plan.  Motorist traveling from Panama City to Mexico Beach, should use Hwy. 22 east to Hwy. 71 south, and from Mexico Beach to Panama City Hwy. 71 north to Hwy. 22 west.
More details will be released as they become available.

as i was saying to ruby the other day, a dead drone is a good drone.

Billy - That's right. I wonder if someone hacked into the controls, like the Iranians did or maybe one of the teenagers controlling the drones spilled his soda.
