X-47B Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle Complete



Read about it here and here.

This is probably one of the single most important aircraft program that the US has at the moment. More than the F-22 (which we really ought to buy more of) or the F-25 [ed: oops] F-35 (less of). The UCAV future is nigh on here. The Predator demonstrated that.

I assume that you mean F-35, although ironically F-25 would be a more logical designation.

doh.

It would make more sense to be the F-25, as you point out.
