About 13 years ago while working for the aerospace company that produced this aircraft, I had the privilege of working on prototype avionics systems for pilotless aircraft systems like this. Video taken in the vicinity of Edwards AFB in California’s high desert.
From Fox News:
The U.S. Navy said it made a breakthrough in drone technology with the first flight of the X-47B, a bat-winged unmanned jet designed to take off and land from an aircraft carrier, one of the most complex and difficult feats in aviation.
It looks like soon we will be able to bomb the hell out of some country without risking the life of even one single American pilot. Hooray for technology!
