Due to my Defence connections, I have been able to show here, for the first time, Australia's new spy-plane.

Although I haven't embedded the image in this thread (for reasons known only to me,) I did shoot the photograph.

Comments, as usual, are welcome. Critiques are not welcome however as I had to shoot off-the-cuff and discreetly lest the security goons rip my arms out of their sockets if they caught me.

Being top secret....... I am unable to comment.....

For an off the cuff shot this is remarkably sharp Steve. I'm impressed you managed to sneak your camera past the security guys. :wink:

Can they trace the fact that I have seen the photo on my laptop?? Wait a sec, this is Alicia's laptop - I am safe now! :lol:

Steve
I have contacted ASIO and they will be getting in touch with you about this gross breach of security! What were you thinking and what have you done to your career? :shock:

Wasn't that a movie called Madagascar?

Matt, it's not a career, it's just a job

And relax guys, they can only trace your IP address.

I have refrained from looking at the picture for fear of reprisal, but from all comments here I believe 'there is no plane' (in the truest of statements from the Matrix).

Yeah Madagascar came to mind first with me as well Steve. They were pretty well disciplined penguins at that!

Nice one Chris!!

The important thing is that, clearly, Australia is in safe hands.

It still looks more solid than the Collins class.

I see by the launch apparatus attached to the landing gear that this is a Fleet Air Arm aircraft and it also look as though the new aircraft carrier it is sitting on is coming along well too. Should be official confirmation in the International press any day now.

Luverlee!
