Boeing's Unmanned Phantom Ray Makes Dramatic Video debut, Set to Take Off This December

Looks like a Cylon Raider prototype. Maybe NASA can use it for meteorological surveys...

Wonderful tech, it's the ethics (or lack thereof) on the hands of a gung-ho - kill it, then we will talk to it General that scares me enough to have change my trousers. "A bit of suppression fire" quickly turns into total oppression.

Boeing might even think of leasing a couple to poorer air-forces like Zimbabwe or Sudan, oh heck even South Africa so-that they can all speed up their ethnic cleansing programs. That's the only danger of the continued military technical development, it never stays only in the hands of the "good guys".

ditto...

when the sh*t hits the fan, and chaos rules, there are no good guys.

that being said.. will it be autonomous in a time of war?

will it still have a pilot located somewhere else...

what was that old startrek episode...
