Unmanned X-45 new info., page

This recent press release gives some information and a few pictures of the X-45 unmanned aircraft. This plane is undergoing testing still but apparently is meeting expectations.

Will the success of planes like the X-45 spell the end for pilloted planes in future? The capabilities of the X-45 are quite good for an early prototype and no doubt this can be improved upon.

It's a great concept for having unmanned remote control vehicles in military applications........ Nikola Tesla envisioned this over a hundred years ago (1898) www.yurope.com... ....... it was Tesla that invented remote controlled vehicles with this very purpose in mind!! He tried to 'give' this idea to the military but at that time no one really understood it and just pushed it off as 'nothing'. It's interesting that his first "automaton" was a submarine.
