YT-879 Heavy Bomber Simulating Drone

1,612 Freedom  8.2 years ago

A large bomber simulation drone used by the U.S. Air Force for upcoming military pilots. It has the ability to take off and land like a conventional airplane, and the cockpit's camera connects straight to the training pod. The drone also can perform evasive maneuvers to avoid enemies. This takes the fuselage from an infamous airliner.
