| The Navy Is Developing A Next-Generation Drone That Can Land On Aircraft Carriers |
| 2014-12-13 |
| Separately, DARPA, the Pentagon's technological research arm, has even tested flights between two drones flying close enough to allow for refueling. Jeebus. Even the USAF Tanker Corps is looking, albeit in the future, at obsolescence! |

| #2 The Fird will be able to land and launch drones. All other existing carriers do not have that capability. |

| #1 Yuuup. Personally, as a rsident of GUAM-WESTPAC I'm more concerned wid the following Artic ... * SAISAT DAILY > US PLANS TO BUILD FIRST AIRPORT [wholly] FOR DRONES. Goes to Yarns/Decades-old Dreams or Visions of mine where I saw clearly US-marked UAVS on Andersen AFB tarmacs in future time, but wid other tarmacs, airfield areas, + buildings seemingly becoming heavy or wrought wid jungle growth - WHAT STRUCK ME WAS THE SEEMINGLY LACK OF PEOPLE = HUMAND BEINGS, USDOD-USAF SERVICEMEMBERS ANDOR LOCALS, ETC. NOT BENG AROUND TO KEEP THE BASE IN BETTER OPERATING CONDITION. Sexy techy Drones aside, I was all-but-shocked by the condition of the base. Makes alot better sense now in this Age of OWG-NWO + Anti-US US-led Globalism = strategic retreat/global pullback, POTUS Obama, + China wanting 1/2 of the Pacific by 2020 [2020 NLT 20205], Hawaii-EASTPAC iff they can get it, + 1/2 or more again of CONUS-NORAM for "living space". |
