Futurism: Three Words: Supersonic. Combat. Drones.
SKYNET in the sky basically.
A Singapore-based aerospace company has developed a combat drone capable of reaching supersonic speeds.
Kelley Aerospace unveiled their concept for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) called the Arrow last week, according to Auto Evolution. The drone’s capable of flying more than 2,600 nautical miles at mach 2.1, or 1,611 miles per hour. That means the drone can fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo in a little over three hours — all while breaking the sound barrier.
Oh, and: It looks, straight up, like a UFO.

WNU Editor: It is at the concept stage. Let's see if they can develop and build it to fly as advertised.
Apparently, this is really a very strong company. Few people are able to develop something like this. She should register herself on Engre. A supersonic drone will once again change the principles of warfare. Or rather, just more deeply entrench the already current principles of the new war. Unfortunately, in protracted military conflicts, people are largely fighting, not equipment. Just like in the last century.
