| #3 No MQ-9 downward vertical tail fin visible in video. The CH-4 does not have a vertical tail fin. Also at link: Jared Szuba @JM_Szuba Just in: US Central Command tells me “there is no operational reporting that supports that a US MQ-9 was shot down over Yemen” on Tuesday, as Houthis claimed. |

| #2 Unlikely. Reapers operate too high for Yemen's SAMs. More likely a Chinese CH-4 UAV operated by the Saudis. |
