I like the comment " US aerospace'n'killware goliath ". *Son in law works on
GPS sats for the government. *Says the big thing is the unmanned planes..

there unseen, but carry bad arse bombs and rockets.


"The X-47B, in fact, will be one of the first true killer robots, able
to conduct a mission using live weapons without needing to communicate
with pilots or even supervisors on its mother ship or back in the
USA..."
