Amazing Video...German Drone in near collision with Passenger plane!!!

Watch the video below of a German Drone almost colliding with a passenger plane by the whiskers.
                                                                             
                                                        
                                                               
According to Bild, the German experience with drones has been quite embarrassing. The EMT Luna X-2000 reconnaissance drone passed few meters under the left engine of an Ariana Afghan Airways Airbus A300 with 100 people on board.

After the close encounter, the drone was caught in the Airbus’s wake turbulence, lost control, and crashed over the Afghan capital Kabul.
                                   
          
Rendering Euro Hawk
Last month, German Ministry of Defense scrapped the Euro Hawk program, after realizing they required over 600 million euros ($784 million) to integrate the type in the European Airspace, a claim rejected by Northrop Grumman and European partner EADS.
