Qinetiq report Taranus milestone

Qinetiq are reporting that they have reached a significant milestone in the UK Taranis UCAV demostrator programme. Aparently the flight control systems are now fully designed. Allowing automatic taxi, take off, flight to target etc to be done. Aparently the first metal for the UCAV will be cut towards the end of this year.

Interesting, but did you notice that the picture they have on that page looks very much like a CGI?

Yes, of course it is. Why wouldn't it be?
