I can't remember what the range of the Argus is...does anyone remember?
In theory, could they release a swarm of UAV's to assist the search effort for Flight 370 and blanket a larger area with real-time imaging vs. the delayed sat images that they are using? There was mention of tech used to tell when a patch of dirt was disturbed for possible IED planting, so why not have some sort of tech for detecting debris in the sea?
I am surprised that UAV's have not been mentioned much.
