Heat-seeking missiles for shooting down passenger
jets, self-driving cars and manequins with simulated body heat to
evade security scanners. Islamic State scientists are busy finding
new ways to kill us, and European leaders refuse to install full
border control.
“Terror group Islamic State is employing scientists
and weapons experts to train jihadists to carry out sophisticated
“spectacular” attacks in Europe, while also modifying weapons systems
capable of targeting passenger jets and military aircraft.
From a “jihadi university” in the Syrian city of
Raqqa, the scientists have stunned western weapons experts by
producing a homemade thermal battery for surface-to-air missiles.
It had been regarded as a virtually impossible feat
for terror groups working without a military infrastructure.
But footage exclusively obtained by Sky News shows
that IS can now recommission thousands of missiles assumed by western
governments to have been redundant through old age.
Heat-seeking warheads can be used to attack passenger
and military aircraft. They are 99% accurate once locked on.
For decades terror groups, including the IRA, had
these weapons but storing them and maintaining the thermal battery –
a key component to the warhead – was very difficult.
It seems that IS scientists have got round the
problem, and that revelation will shock the world of international
security.
The IS research and development team has produced
fully working remote controlled cars to act as mobile bombs, while
they have fitted the cars with “drivers”; mannequins with
self-regulating thermostats to produce the heat signature of humans,
allowing the car bombs to evade sophisticated scanning machines that
protect military and government buildings in the West. …
An IS trainer with more than eight hours of unedited
training videos was captured by the remnants of the Free Syrian Army
(FSA) as he headed north through Turkey towards Europe.
The FSA passed the material to Sky News but was not
aware of the importance of the videos, described by a weapons adviser
to the British military as an intelligence “gold mine”. …
Although this type of activity had been widely
suspected by western intelligence services, this is the first
concrete evidence that it is taking place.
Crucially, it is far more developed than had
previously been thought possible. …
In Turkey an IS defector confirmed to Sky News that a
top secret training programme was known about in Raqqa, his home
town. He confirmed the programme was designed for attacks in Europe
and further afield…”
