All these 'how many yrs behind' argument is really an exercise in futility in my opinion and never lead to any productive discussions. First off it is very subjective and secondly technological advancement are bridge at different rates between each country and each area of expertise.

One can argue that 1935 the average layman will probably say that UK is years ahead of the US but within a span of a decade not only has the US matched the UK but surpassed them in terms of military advancement.

Thank you! Technological development is a highly non linear process.

Honestly that thing is much too flat to be another CAU/UCAV !!! I think it's more likely a tail, maybe the Y-'s tail on its way to the static test instititute or so ... :confused:

Here's the video of the US Navy X-47B UCAV touch and go on the USS George Bush, CVN-77. It shows a couple of flybys and then the touch and go from the island of the carrier.

They are scheduled to perform several more trap landings on shore, then in the next few weekes will perform the first trap on the carrier.
