Shooting down a UCAV is not a big deal at all.
Considering that Predator has far bigger RCS's and on on top of that they are carrying Missiles aswel which generate most of the RCS's
In 2002 Pakistani F-16 shot down indian Searcher UAV which is much smaller and no weapons hence difficult to be picked up by radar.
Beside this the drone captured by Iran was not armed.it was also not shot down but hacked.There are rumours that Iran had hired chinese to hack the RQ-170 UAV
