- I heard on the news this morning a report that the US is considering selling a
- "Super-Secret Spy Satellite" to the United Arab Emirates. Does anybody know
- any more details than this? I am primarily interested in the rationale and
- logistics for such a sale, as I don't expect details of the satellite itself to
- be available.
