Can someone who understands these things explain in simple language how the Iranians captured one of your drones? Surely the instructions are 'encrypted' (is that the right word). Does it mean that they broke the encryption then hacked into the instructions and then managed to steer it safely to earth?
Seems awfully clever to me.
Or did they just have a bloody great butterfly net?
Now, where's the key that winds up my computer? Sure I put it in this drawer.... mmmm

Respect a believers right to believe, but they should damn well repect our right to challenge such utterly illogical notions.

As far as I'm aware they shot it down, whether it is still intact is highly debatable. The US shot down an Iranian drone in 2009 so no doubt they feel vindicated.

The pictures we saw showed it (?) in pristine condition. Of course it might have been the latest from Airfix but it looked pretty gen to me.

I'd like to take this moment to congratulate Iran for doing it's part to express it's loyalty to humanity and for taking retribution against the Evil Empire.

It's possible that they managed to determine the radio frequencies used to control the drone and jam the signal, although I believe that they use spread spectrum techniques to prevent such jamming. If they had done that, it's likely that the drone would have just glided back to the ground rather than dropping out of the sky. But I can't believe they would have been able to control it, they are just not that sophisticated.
Practically Perfect
There are frequency-hopping radio equipment which are reported to be anti-jamming...

That's what I just said, spread spectrum is the same thing as frequency hopping.

Fuck.

To be fair, they are not exactly the same thing. Spread spectrum is typically used for applications like mobile telephony to maximise use of the bandwidth available. Frequency hopping is used primarily to prevent jamming by switching frequencies in a semi random manner many times per second. You might be interested to know that Hedy Lamarr was the co-inventor of the frequency hopping concept back in the '40s
