From Naval Open Source Intelligence:
Northrop Grumman recently announced its stealth UAV has been successfully completed and will be ready for initial test flights in the fall of 2009.
Designed under a joint program with the United States Navy, the X-47B drone will closely resemble a strike fighter.
It will take off from and land on an aircraft carrier and support mid-air refueling.
Unlike the current crop of military UAVs, the X-47B will operate mostly autonomously once airborne.
