Default X-47B Program Video

Here is a snippet I took from a Future Weapons episode. Gives you a good idea on how the X-47 will be run.

Since I'm on UAV's today - http://www.veoh.com/videos/v15610950KXBWhatJ

Thats the AH-6X. It can be either manned or unmanned. Looks like the perfect compliment to the Apache considering the Commanche may never be built.

An Apache pilot can fly this thing remotely and send it in without exposing himself at all!

Very cool looking UAV!

But if these are the future what are the poor Naval Academy grads going to do?

They might be reduced to having to act like actual military officers

I am still bitter about what happened on Osan AB South Korea in 1987.

A group of naval aviators came into the O Club and trashed it. I mean furniture broken, windows smashed. Their conduct was a disgrace to the uniform.

The result?

Since they were visitors, nothing happened to the squidlies. Professional consideration was how it was explained to us.

The damage was fixed by taking funds away from the NCO club on base. Why they had to pay for damages not at their club I still can't understand. It is not like the NCO clubs on base had all that much money.

So yeah, the next time I see Navy aviators acting like Commissioned Officers will be the first time.

That is pretty lame that you had to pay for their damage. I am probably not following your story though. Some guys not related to you busted up a club, yet your club had to pay?
