Artist rendition of a concept vehicle.
I will believe it when it flies but I am more interested in how they are planning on controlling the vehicle if it ever does fly.

"It" never will .
This is just riding on the "tick-tack" popularity.
Akin to , as you said , propaganda.
I mean you have come out with some whoppers in the past.

Not sure but are we talking about flying drones, people carrying drones etc.
They WILL fly, they are not just a daydream as if we in the west do not keep up it is one area were Asia and even the middle east will get there before us.
But will it be safe?, I would not relish getting into an unpiloted air craft, how easy will they be to hack?.
I am not keen on them and even in the west we already have the Amazon (CIA hahaha) drone's that will fly around and spy on everything, everywhere all hours of the day and night while delivering parcels to all those porch pirates.
Moors law though if I may borrow from computer geekdom seems broken, though IBM have just build a 2nM scale processor, it is far from becoming mainstream just yet.
Just watched that and thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks for that.

(I think that is cyrilic for Skynet if not blame Bing)
I like the apply bat mobile but as to turning it into a giant mobile phone, well gimmicks will be gimmick's.
I think the US is probably further ahead in military development than people realize but there is always going to be that will to put HUMAN boot's on the ground that other nation's do not see the same way.
Russia is pouring billions into the field, China is also and just possibly India is as well.
Now this guy posits a mysterious but thought provoking possibility, did a previous age destroy itself through Robot's run amok, Robots that followed a simple methodology for keeping the peace, destroy the stronger side of any conflict first, when it becomes the weaker attack the then stronger side and continue until both sides are annihilated, simply machine logic that does not have any human common sense but in the end would leave a world desolate except for stone age people hiding in caves in case any remaining machines came to kill them.
In the bible there is a prophecy about the image of the beast, a graven image with the power to kill, is that a Robot soldier or police man?.
The next video comes from a series that is names in such a way as to make me think of small geriatric Grey's with Zimmer Frames.
It is easy for us to assume that we are the first, that we are the most clever but in fact it is almost definite that stone supposedly primitive age and Neolithic (new Stone Age) hunters had more brain cells than we do today and were physically stronger, had more endurance etc and much harder lives which offset that with shorter life span's.
But instead of us assuming a logical progression from hand axes to power tool's what if civilizations rose and fell through many different causes, what if previous industrial ages occurred and humanity was far older than we are told.
Current CO2 output we are told is at levels not SEEN for eight hundred thousand years, what then was producing all that pollution eight hundred thousand years ago?.
What if there were NO ancient aliens, well at least not biological ones but I guess a sufficiently advanced alien race could have sent robotic facsimiles of themselves out to both preserve there own civilization even long after they were gone but also to explore the universe, especially if they had somehow managed to preserve there minds or a mind like there own created in there own image in such devices.
So if these are real then perhaps they are remnants of an ancient SDI type defence system designed by some ancient long lost advanced civilization to protect there ancient homeland from another long vanished civilization that lived no were else but right here on earth, perhaps they were designed to shoot down ICBM and sometimes come back online somehow presumably because the technology they knew was both more advanced than our current level and also much longer lasting like that Barbaric robot may have been, an ancient weapon still walking around long after it had destroyed it's own creators.
Compared to these distant possibility's we are like Children playing among the graves of long dead giant's and not seeing the remains for what they really are, a warning.

That particular aircraft has been around for a long time and IMO is not the same as the aircraft that was talked about in the video. Even the video said people are stumped on how the thing could fly without wings or a tail surface. But thanks anyway
