The Northrop Grumman x-47B unmanned strike plane recently completed a series of carrier landings. This is relatively Big News… while the carrier was clearly in relatively calm seas, it’s still a challenge. By stocking carriers with a number of these sort of planes, low-end bombardment missions will become a hell of a lot safer for the US Navy, since there are no pilots involved.
