This is the one that carries a Boeing 747 for a payload!

I read the title, and wondered what the hell they were doing with a B-47.
ETA- I guess I need to post an explanation- The title says XB-47B. The actual UCAV is the X-47B, note there is only 1 'B', not two 'B's. |

It is nice to Grumman back in the mix and designing Navy birds.

Wicked looking plane. I hope it gets deployed sooner rather than later or not at all.
