The United States is about to launch 'tiny spy' into Afghanistan

British and American military plan to deploy a new mini-reconnaissance aircraft in the war in Afghanistan to create more advantage over Taliban insurgents.

According to the Daily Mail, the new 'spy fly' is a super-sized, unmanned aerial vehicle that fits just the palm of your hand and weighs just a pack of candy. British and US military commanders believe that the SQ-4 Recon , one of the smallest aircraft in the world, could become a powerful new ally of the coalition. in the fight against the Taliban and will help save the lives of Afghan soldiers.

SQ-4 Recon is described as a miniature version of the aircraft itself up straight Little Nellie character spies legendary James Bond drove in the film 'You Only Live Twice' (translation: 'You only live 2 times' ). It consists of two cameras that allow the soldiers to watch over the hill as well as in the bunkers of the enemy without facing the risk of being killed or injured.

The SQ-4 Recon can also be remotely operated by troops pinned in a control room thousands of miles away, or by soldiers patrolling and using a tablet 7. inch.

With a diameter of nearly 23cm and weighing less than 200g, this nano-unmanned aerial vehicle can fly and hover for 30 minutes or turn off the engine, park the edge of the wall like a bird, and zoom in and capture actionable shots. Eight hours without being detected.

SQ-4 Recon cameras can transmit live images (such as live cameras) or capture stills or video both in day and night.

As a product of the Automated Systems Laboratory of the University of Middlesex and BCB International, based in Cardiff, England, the SQ-4 Recon is being tested by the US military. The British Defense Ministry is well aware of the potential of this unmanned aerial vehicle.

Unmanned aerial vehicles are being used in Afghanistan so large that they are often fired like regular fixed-wing aircraft, making them easily targets by Taliban insurgents. . In February, British Defense Secretary Philip Hammond stated: 'There are plans to introduce new nanosized drone systems.'
