Predator UAV in space?

I saw this picture on the Air Force Technology website (www.airforce-technology.com...)



I was wondering if this picture is real because this drone appears to be in space or at least a very high altitude.

I didn't think even manned normal planes could get that high.

So do you think it is real?

I cannot find this picture on the website. Please give link to that page. Plus, the picture looks like a scanned image from a magazine or something

the pic looks fake also what would have taken this pic so close to the predator?

Here you go www.airforce-technology.com...

Its at the top right below the USAF symbol

If that picture was not a fake how is the aircraft flying, I mean, how efficient would the propeller be at that altitude?

looks fake it's just a made up image

that UAV is not designed to re-enter the atmosphere it would ddesintegrate itself

Just a design to promote the Predator UAV. Its a computer animated design just to show what it looks like

I don't know if it's CG. Looks like a photo of the UAV, but just pasted ontop of a photo of the Earth... but yeah it's just a promotional type photo Hyperen. They arn't saying it can go into space or anything, just did it to make it look pretty or something.

the color isnt right and it is obviously CG besides the predator only uses a single rear propellor and only goes a little over 60 MPH there is no air in space so the propellor is useless.

like the others said its fake and is a promo. The earth is like that to symbolise the global coverage that it offers. Looks like general atomics is trying to export it, like the global hawk going to the Luftwaffe.

You can tell thatthe two pictures were merged. The sunlight on the aircraft does not corrospond to the earth.
