Boeing Phantom Ray UCAV

[FWW7450]

UP UP AND AWAY. Its a burd, no its a plane, no its Superman, NO ITS ANOTHER ONE OF THOS DAMN KILLING MACHINES FROM THE UNITED STATES COMING HERE TO KICK OUR SORRY ASSES.

[doneladio666]

BTW folks the term 'drone' is so passé these days - operators hate the term because they think it belittles the sophistication and autonomy of the contemporary UCAV - both Predators and Reapers have a suite of capabilities that do not necessarily require direct operator intervention. To many, 'drone' implies dumb or stupid - hence the operators' taking exception to the term. The press, alas, do not seem to have cottoned on to this semantic quibble as of yet ..

[doneladio666]

I am currently writing my PhD on the subject of UCAVs - they certainly have the potential to change the face of warfare, while kicking up all sorts of ethical quandaries

(esp if they are ever granted autonomy to launch missiles, independent of a human operator) But before we get too excited about the potential of UCAVs we should note that there are still severe impediments to progress in the realm of AI. Until we can crack that nut, UCAVs will likely remain ineffectual in air-to-air roles.

Чё это за хрень? Она летает? или это вообще - пылесос?

[Vann7]

Isnt this the puppy that IRAN got as christmast gift? lol

[sharpiellll]

France and Sweden are making a UCAV too.

[Reconseal4050]

iRAN HAS NO FUEL TO FLY THIS THING

[mattmatt115]

@Reconseal4050 Iran is the second largest exporter of oil in OPEC

Iranians pay the equivalent of what would be 7cents a litre for gasoline at the pumps, in the USA.

You think they have no gasoline? They produce gasoline for domestic consumption and export their surplus. Suggesting Iran has no fuel to fly this thing (which they couldnt anyway) is really an indicator of extreme ignorance of facts.

You should read more books

[TankNutJohn89]

@Reconseal4050: They doesn't have the systems to fly this thing, Iran doesn't have this bird, they have the RQ-170 Sentinel, which is developed by Lockheed Martin, this is the Boeing Phantom Ray, which is far more advanced.

[Skippy585]

Sounds like a GE 404?

[MrFattyfatfatboy]

nothing about its physical body is that secret,its the software or algorythms that make this secret ,thats the only real worry with the russian version because ivan can programme better than sam.

[TheDarkorbit0]

MiG Skat UCAV во сто крат лучше! однозначно! так что эти псевдостелсы, сделаные по украденной технологии можете отправлять на свалку! 

[Carbide195]

@TheDarkorbit0 Stolen technology? The B2 "Spirit" has the same if not better stealth characteristics and it is 23 years old. The MiG Skat is still being developed.

[mattmatt115]

@Carbide195 And its 2billion a copy

Great investment. Funnier to watch one crash

[bodacious2109]

Which one of those ass munches in the last frame sold copies of this project to the Russians? As well as the copies of Boeing stealth fighter to the Communist bastards in both China and Russia. Or it could have been taken by all those foreign Indians fucks that has flooded America's defense plant working on the cheap.

I worked with a few of those Sand Nig*as while at Lockheed Martin and where they stayed amongst themselves like slugs.

[fuckyorutube]

Iran has One )))

[UsaRulesTheWorld1234]

@fuckyorutube stupid ass!!!!!! this is not the one.this one is more advanced -.-

[86nugget19]

@UsaRulesTheWorld1234 stupid ass!!!!!!! thats what your government tells you...be a good little sheep and believe what the obama administration tells you -.-

[thatmetalguy85]

@fuckyorutube yes true, but not this one

[VectorGhost]

@fuckyorutube naa the one Lockheed has was no were near as advanced as this Phantom Ray and Northrop is more advanced

[TankNutJohn89]

@fuckyorutube: My Gosh, every Video about UCAVs there are such dumbass comments. Iran got an RQ-170, this is the X-45C. R = Recon, X = eXperimental, it isn't in Service. The RQ-170 is in Service since 2007, this bird made its first flight in mid 2011. This one is far more advanced.You probably think Stealth-Drone is Stealth-Drone huh? There are other too, such as P-175 Polecat & X-47B Pegasus. The Sentinel & Phantom Ray aren't the only US-Stealth Drones.

[Direwolf56]

@fuckyorutube no, that was a different done

[Raptorsky20]

is that wat Iranian have shout down ?

[UsaRulesTheWorld1234]

@Raptorsky20 no :D

[munkkis4n]

I believe that US lost one of these in purpose because these things like any other highend technology has self-destruction in it for safety purposes. I don't know why they would do something like that but it is clear that it should have explode in situation like that when the connection with the control center is lost.

[27twolizards]

it looks like a boomerang with wheels. Probably because they are hoping it will come back.

[BigBlue0002]

Ooohhhh.... Intimidating. Until a Persian power "hijacks" it, lands it intact and parades it around on the world news. God forbid the secret technology that they'll gladly sell to our enemies... America? You got "Pwned" on that one...

[DailyStaley]

Iran got dat 1 nao D:

[kolombi4]

А он летать умеет?

[artikl1]

@kolombi4

ага я также подумал !!

[bodacious2109]

@kolombi4 What in the fuck are you saying 'Penissaur Erectumus? Speak so that I can understand what coming out of your mouth, hun.

[persevere67]

how long before iran jacks one of these?

[Reconseal4050]

The Boeing version is still in testing thank god!!! Iran got the lockeed martian version dated 2006.

[PetraFuckYou]

Government Cant hide it now..IRAN gots it now..lol

[2wordU]

It is not the same model Iran downed!

[freedomination2]

More big money spent by the WAR PIGS.

[timw1959]

I know this video isn't new but still looks nothing like what they claim to have shot down.

[phatbieu]

@timw1959 this one is real. gov originally had both models on the table but decided to give contract to Lockheed and now it felt on Iran's laps. Boeing later went on itself with own budget and got this one. This is Phantom work

[divisorplot]

And it's going to steal))))

[simpletruths10]

THIS VIDEO MAKES ME SLEEPY, WE NEED ONE WITH MUSIC

[1Bengalor]

Secrets of Future Jet Technologies are available now at the 2001 first issue of the Int'l J. Turbo and Jet Engines, Part A

[TATARSTAN59500]

@TheCrazyJungleMan is not same category is bigger

x47b have best stealth alliage but mig skat is very big and transport more bomb is for attack no recon

[franknbeans4761]

@TATARSTAN59500 The X-47B carries up to 4,500 pounds of internal weapons. It is not used for just reconnaissance. Do you know what the Mig SKAT can carry?

[TATARSTAN59500]

@franknbeans4761 no have any characteristic information but look picture

i see kh-31 and 2 kab-5000d

400x2 x 600 kg = 1400kg only with 1 bomb and two missile

many topic talk of 10.000kg with fuel and ax load bomb  eussia talk of service in 2015 in special escadron

[Elitepoosniff]

The British one will fly.

[ChicaWolverina]

It's too bad it can't fly, nice taxing though.

[xXxStoudemire1xXx]

@ChicaWolverina its maiden flight was on April 27, 2011. The uav's design is based off of the x-45 why did you think it cant fly??

[ChicaWolverina]

@xXxStoudemire1xXx Non, I didn't really, it's that it never did a take off roll.

[Tjita1]

Are all those people needed to fly the thing?

[alexshmalex]

Once Skynet has control of these, we're finished. :(

[BrokenAeroVT]

You know what happened when the Nazis 'outsourced' their war manufacturing to the labor camps--their bullets didn't always work so good.

[bingofioul]

all the newest UCAV looks the same x47 Neuron, skat taranis !!! fuck it with su27,f15,mirage there was a place for looking beautifull or not...fuck the futur !!!

[TATARSTAN59500]

mig skat is no bad too

[XBotticelli]

all last gen uav look the same... American,Russian,French,Britis­h,ect... they all look the same.

[TATARSTAN59500]

RUSSIA HAVE MIG SKAT

[wjsflywing]

Fly the damn thing. 

[Thumper396396]

How do you think they flew the 2 planes at 911, think about it.

[cbtj32]

Cool a b2 uav spirit bomber ! Lol just saying cuz it looks so sumilar to US stealth bomber

[BusinessKi11ER]

@cbtj32 The b-2 has a copied design as the German bomber from ww2, but still Mig Skat is a copy of it as well!

[mariamole011]

if there is no one on board, who is going to enjoy the view?

[dcoverda21]

Both the us and russia stole the flying wing tech. from germany after ww2, we jus perfected it.

[fredfinks]

@PainTrain1985

Agree and airline pilots are moving ever closer to an 'overseer's' role.

[Oleg111222333]

The Americans stole the Russian MiG Skat drawings ...

[jay6541]

@Oleg111222333 nope russia stole americas dumb ass cause if you were smart enough to know we build owers wayyy before russia 'smart one' -_-

[Oleg111222333]

@jay6541 Do not you know that all Americans are stupid and fat, they do nothing to invent just stolen :P Typical American /watch?v=bY0xgRA_Sk0

[jay6541]

@Oleg111222333 lol wow and we dont steal if any country its russia and china LOL so you fail.

[highlander2107]

@Oleg111222333 You're on YouTube. Invented by Americans. Very strange logic you have.

[POPJack1717]

@Oleg111222333 Lol no no no no, we americans were the pioneers of todays UAVs. if anythang, it was russia and china who borrowed and copied us. Before the UCAV in this video we had the predator UAVs which were the forefathers of our newer UAV tech. Russia had no such a thang at that time, so yeah russia copied us like they ALWAYS do. aka. the nuclear bomb, the B1 bomber russian version, etc etc etc.

[Oleg111222333]

@POPJack1717 most perfect Russian drone was 1988 BURAN analog shuttle, but with the ability to take off and land without a crew. BURAN was closed because of economic failure and he had no radio from the ground. The U.S. has analogs?

[enlightenment2u]

jesus, fighter pilots of ucav should be children.

How about a mock up fight with PC gamers with real fighter pilots?

Arcade gamers would win easily...

[fredfinks]

@enlightenment2u Real debate currently between the two schools of thought regarding remote piloting, experienced pilots and the new breed who think all can be done by sim.

Did you know that the remote pilots literally click "land" with their mouse to land the predators!

But it's a moot point with Ray because its designed to be fully autonomous. Currently, this is one area quite easy and rare for us to remove the human and get better results.

[TheAwesomeStuff1]

@fredfinks actually they land with a joystick and throttle and the whole range of equipment you might find in a manned aircraft.

[fredfinks]

@TheAwesomeStuff1

They can land with a joystick but they don't. I'm not saying never. I'm saying for a majority of flights.

Did you know that civilian airliners land with auto pilot about once a week. CAT 111 operations have a mandatory MINIMUM auto land rule is once a month!

[bunny153649]

@PainTrain1985 lol 20 years? Did you forget about f-35, A-10C, f-22, etc......

[RepublikaSrpska1989]

copy cats 

[jjs4you2]

@RepublikaSrpska1989 Hahahaha, ours were first to fly, like way back in the 80's

[RepublikaSrpska1989]

@jjs4you2 ahahaahhha  Of course every fucking weapon the Americans made it first and the Russians only copy

ahahaaa you are soo funny

[senecavalley2010]

@RepublikaSrpska1989 Name 1 weapon where it is the other way around?

[finalmind]

im speculating right out there i guess...but the RAF & USAAF are retiring a lot of aircraft lately ....theyve stopped making F22's...only 187 odd built.....are the UK & USAAF going to have squadrons of stealth drones soon?...both Taranis & Phantom Ray look fantastic to me....the pilots flying them in advanced simulators safe on the ground....fantastic...able to pull huge g's cos there isnt a man aboard...able to take greater risks cos there isnt a man aboard......next stop Robot Soldiers.lol

[jjs4you2]

@finalmind The UK will have less than 187 Typhoons, it can't afford them because their cost is in the Raptors range now. Just a thought.

[sambra1979]

looks like an old British prototype they putting into production

[MokomaSusi]

@sambra1979

Americans tested flying wing UCAV's already in 90's, and perhaps even before that.

[wineverytime1]

@sambra1979 OK where is the video on the British one?

[jjs4you2]

@sambra1979 Funny, nothing like it because this is an actual working "Stealthy" UCAV which no other country in the world has. The British are light years behind the Americans in anything that has to do with stealth and UAV's that's why the British bought and now fly our Predators and Reapers. Next you'll be declaring the Predators as a British design from an old British prototype. Research, go back to the mid 80's when the Americans first flew "bat wing" UAV's, the unclassified ones. ;-)

[aon10003]

Mig skat

[TheBlitz1]

@aon10003 a lot of uavs are similar in design and flight characteristics

[maxxbad17]

looks like the MiG Skat

[gregrutz]

that was boring.

[Elfulcrum777]

the aliens are fucked now...

[7nordic]

But it can only carry two GPS munitions thats hardly a large payload

[gregrutz]

@7nordic If you are on the ground and 2 people are shooting at you and one of these is overhead, say goodbye.

[TheShadowwolf88]

Hmmmm! War on Joystick!

[SanctumStudios]

when i was a kid in the 80's i remember thinking they should just have oversize remote control planes with no pilots that can carry bombs etc... and i lived to see it.

[Flugabwehrkanone]

@SanctumStudios The Ryan Firebee saw combat in the Southeast Asia Conflict.

[TheBlitz1]

@SanctumStudios they had UAV's in the 80's yo

[with33]

@SanctumStudios they actually had them in ww2 well sorta do abit of research about it kinda was the first guided missle lol very weird story behind it

[Anarchizer]

Amazing machine!

[VRtechman]

These things will be the Fangs of SkyNet! You nation dosnt decrease itt's population we'll it over!

[916marchu]

I love my country!!!!!!!!!

[emmanuelkir]

They are getting set for 2018, no! man kind is doomed :)

[911investigator]

They should start making TERMINATORS too!

[rogerbander]

Oh Crap Just like the Movie TERMINATOR or of course Battlestar Galactica

[atheistonly]

Shaytards always touch the outside of the plane! did you guys touch it too? :)

[GrenadeCatcher]

UAV > RC-XD

[bevassimary]

if u saw the film skyline this was the plane that fired the rocket to the alien ship but ofcourse such shapes doesnt have the manoeuvring abilities that were placed in that film and i also think this cant be a spy plane as it is with no propeller so it cant move very slowly for capturing photage but i think this can be a very good bomber

[CrAnSi]

@bevassimary I guess the SR-71/U-2 needed a propeller then to complete the reconnaissance missions right?

[bevassimary]

@CrAnSi the propeller for reconnaissance mission is required because of one thing... to give the longest time of photage from the spot as it can fly with very slower rate of speed of course also for the lower fuel consumption but this aint the issue here

[sorryociffer]

@CrAnSi

The extreme altitude, even with the speed of the SR, gave it's cameras the "dwell time/time on station" over a target needed to get quality pics. Flying over your house at 95000ft, at 1000mph, will let you get pics, higher quality ones at that, than if you flew over your house at 1000ft at 500mph.

[HarisonHopwood]

@sorryociffer 1000mph? More like 2500.

[sorryociffer]

@HarisonHopwood

Quote likely. I was being conservative and trying to use numbers people can comprehend more easily.

[HarisonHopwood]

@sorryociffer I understand you logic there.

Not many people can visualise how fast the SR-71 really is. Hell, sometimes even I cant comprehend how fast it is.

[senecavalley2010]

@sorryociffer double the mph to about 2000

[budgetgamer1968]

IS THIS THE JET IN THAT MOVIE STEALTH?

[CuppaAvenger]

@budgetgamer1968 No.

[budgetgamer1968]

@CuppaAvenger  TELL ME IT DOES NOT REMIND YOU OF IT!

[CuppaAvenger]

@budgetgamer1968 A little.

[Hackzoid]

ugly mofo

[TheJoshJman]

this is a freaking probe...bomb carrier, or spy plane....just like the Predator probe..

[canadiantimberwolf1]

Sorry i just read the description and found unmanned...my apologies. It will be interesting too see the role this aircraft take on. Will it replace the drones out there and..Take care...

[canadiantimberwolf1]

theworacle, is this aircraft manned or is it Remote Control?
