Taranis drone

Interesting press release about the Taranis drone

Of course now that they've proven the design, the Government will cancel it and buy something American which they will then cancel later at a cost which would have bought several squadrons of the home grown item........ or maybe I'm being too cynical ?

Ive always wondered how well drones would fare up against a competent opponent? I mean its nice and easy to hit some 3rd world country, but what happens when you go up against a 1st world country? Could they not jam out the signal to control it?
