Jack Barnes (not his real name) goes to work each day in Las Vegas and sits down at a video game type console from which he kills terrorists 8,000 miles away using a million dollar Predator unmanned killer vehicle. But he could get the same results for 'pennies' if he used the Archangel. It's the Pentagon's version of a disposable camera.

The tiny spy drone sells for $38,000 dollars and can do the same job as spy planes that cost from one and a half to seventy million dollars. So let's all pray it doesn't fall into terrorist hands.

CAN WE STOP THE ARCHANGEL?

INVENTOR WARNS WE MUST LEARN HOW TO KILL IT BEFORE TERRORISTS GET THE TINY PLANE…

It’s the ultimate nightmare: 80 tiny unmanned planes are launched from America and remotely guided by terrorists in the Middle East using satellite telephone navigation. Radar identifies them as flocks of birds and they plunge into the White House, Buckingham Palace, The Kremlin and NATO headquarters in Belgium which were not warned or evacuated. They carry nuclear dirty bombs and biological weapons and there is absolutely no way to stop them…..

West Palm Beach, Florida – Roy Wubker, a successful US Defense contractor, has produced a tiny $38,000 flying killer machine that can change the world of combat and terrorism,

His tiny ‘pennies per copy” version of the famous million dollar Predator can cross the Atlantic controlled by a pilot in the Pentagon and target buildings or individuals. In the wrong hands it can also be used as a cheap and fiendish weapon against any country on earth.

This is where the nightmare begins. Wubker reveals that his Archangel unmanned Aerial vehicle can be made with off the shelf materials bought in any Radio Shack store and a regular Motorola satellite telephone. He warns it’s only a matter of time before terrorists get their hands on the cheap drones. He doesn't even want the public to see what the Archangel looks like.

Instead of spending billions re-inventing what he has already produced and now sells to US special operations forces Wubker is calling on America and other countries to focus on how to stop Archangel type attacks because there is currently no defense against them.

“Rogue nations don’t have to buy or build multi-million dollar ICBM Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles, “ says Wubker, “With copies of my unmanned drones they can target anything or anyone on earth for less than forty thousand dollars.

The CEO of Systems Research and Development Corporation of West Palm Beach Florida, north of Miami, told Edit International “We’re selling operational units of an astonishing weapon which doesn’t need multi billion dollar development programs.

Set up in 1989, SRDC has just 22 employees to make the Archangel and the Super Archangel that can fly on their own for thousands of miles carrying cameras, weapons and any many types of lethal payloads.

The little UAV’s can also be used for surveillance anywhere in the world sending back pictures showing the result of air strikes or assessing enemy positions. The US Navy’s Special Warfare division is already using the tiny killers and hundreds more have been ordered by US Special Forces.

Each plane carries an onboard computer and a global positioning satellite system (GPS) so it can receive precise flying instructions. The Archangel has a ten-foot wingspan, is powered by a small gasoline engine and weighs less than 100 pounds. It’s made mostly of fiberglass and Styrofoam plastic.

The small propeller craft can fly 30 hours and has a range of 2,000 nautical miles. The Super Archangel has a 14-foot wingspan and can carry 60 pound payloads. The planes come 2 to a box. If Wubker gets enough US government orders – he will sell to no one else – then Wubker says the price will drop to $10,000 a plane. Each packing box doubles as a launching ramp powered by a crossbow set by a powerful crank handle. They can be dropped in cases to US soldiers on the ground or carried in by military transports. Soldiers will follow simple instructions, set up the planes and launch the UAV’s at specified times.

Once in the air control will be taken over by pilots sitting in the Pentagon in Washington thousands of miles away.

Says the reclusive Wubker in a rare interview, “My plane carries about 60 pounds of fuel and a little 2 stroke gasoline engine of 8.5 horsepower. The Super Arch Angel has a 15 horsepower engine. What we’ve done is design a flying gas tank that can cross oceans.”

Archangel carries a 5-pound weapons payload which can contain anything from powerful C4 plastique to poison gas. It can deliver incendiary devices to burn down cities. It is the ultimate terrorist weapon - essentially a long range remotely guided SCUD missile with a brain and eyes.

“I will never allow my machine to be used over the United States. It’s a deadly offensive weapon and could also simply fall out of the sky and kill innocent people on the ground. “UAV’’s have a terrible record of crashing.”

Says Wubker, “Think about the Global Hawk, a $70 million dollar a unit UAV.

They built the first four and lost three. The third crashed outside of Kuwait City. They are the size of a 737 jetliner. It’s like a commercial airliner crashing every couple of months.”

Wubker said since the 1950’s engineers have talked about using pilot-less commercial passenger planes." But they still haven't been developed."

It's only in counter terrorism that the UAV has come of age. The US is now believed to have a force of 3,000 predators and is using them well, killing targeted terrorists almost at will.

No one knows how much use the Archangel is getting or if it is working as a guide for predators.

“The Archangel cannot be shot down. It can fly extremely low. There is no time to see it or detect it. It cannot be acquired as a target. If it’s seen how can you lock on to such a target? What can you use to shoot it down? It’s a very real threat to the world and I say that as a loyal American.

“A swarm of my little planes crossing the Atlantic and going into targets in London or other capital cities are a threat we have to be concerned about,” Wubker warns.

Heads of state could eventually be tracked and killed from the air by unseen, flying snipers!

“If you searched the internet right now you’d be surprised how many people can put together systems like mine. Some websites even tell you how to make up the GPS navigation system,” he reveals.

“The Archangel has landing gear as an option. They’re so cheap it’s better to let them blow up after use,” says Wubker. “But when I am test flying them out of Florida I land them safely thousands of miles away in Colorado so our people can retrieve them.”

The Archangel and its crates are designed to fit in pallets of a C130 cargo carrier. Eight Archangels and their launching crates are designed to fit in the back of a Humvee.

You can take them into a war theater or outside the conflict and fly them in because of their long range. The big problem now with other unmanned aircraft is the huge logistical supply trail needed. Each of the current other UAV’s need a couple of cargo planes supporting them.

Roy Wubker charges: The big defense contractors are trying to re-invent for billions what we have already done for pennies. They look where they can use their resources to bring us down. It’s like giant airlines trying to squash small economy startups. They know that low technology often can beat high technology.”

Some 20 years ago, said Wubker, he worked at Northrop Aviation trying to sell modern jet fighters to South Korea which feared an invasion by 3,000 cheap and ancient Anatov 2 bi-planes purchased by North Korea from the Soviet Union. Each old plane could carry 20 Special Forces troops and fly at
65 knots an hour. (the same speed as the Arch Angel)

We were trying to sell South Korea modern jet fighters that could fire Sidewinders which then cost $750 thousand dollars apiece. South Korea realized new 600 mile an hour jets couldn’t stop the old planes and was afraid to buy the new planes because they might anger the North Koreans. We didn't make the sale and South Korea was not invaded.

“It was a case of low technology beating high technology – exactly the position we are now in with Arch Angel,” says the wealthy inventor.

“We are spending billions on the Strategic Defense Initiative and worrying that North Korea is developing ICBM’s and will be sending them at us. But that is years away. If I were a country wanting to attack the United States I’d be building tiny Arch Angels.”

Wubker says he has put over $700 thousand dollars of his own money into research and development of the Arch Angel. “I haven’t asked the US government for a single research dollar and I’ve funded it with profits from my other defense contracts.” Wubker won’t describe his other projects saying they are totally secret.

We asked Wubker if his plant is surrounded and protected by US federal agents. “There is no need to attack us,“ he replied rather nervously.

“Anybody can do what I have done here. Why attack my place when they can make their own?”

He asks, "Why aren’t the US and other countries worrying about how to detect and stop UAV’s like mine?

“The United States can’t weaponize, use the Archangel as a flying bomb, because if we do we’re in violation of the Salt Two Treaty, the old Cold War treaty with Soviet Russia. Each tiny Arch Angel would count as a million dollar cruise missile."

“However no one else has to obey Salt Two. Rogue nations or terrorist cells can carry a pound of plutonium in an aircraft like Archangel and fly it into a building in a metropolitan area. You can explode it above a city or just crash it down to attack.”


“There are all kinds of horrible things that can be delivered, “ says Wubker, “many nasty substances. Anybody can do it. I am proof positive that it can be done without great research or expense.

“Every right minded country in the world should be now trying to learn how to stop this tiny airplane that will be able to cause death and devastation.”
