Mr Optimistic

Is this a wind-up?

It is taking up enough time defending my point against superior numbers without having to prove the same point again and again!

Go to post 225
They have such a system currently operational
It runs off an android mobile phone.
This is not the future, this is now and mundane
It is designed to take control off incapacitated pilots and has been tested in vertical dives towards the ground.


And no, the military intention is autonomous not ground controlled as is demonstrated in the X47B and Blackhawks links I've posted.
