Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works Reveals High Altitude Unmanned System
Lockheed Martin has unveiled the existence of a new high altitude, unmanned aerial demonstrator to reporters attending the Farnborough International Air Show.
The P-175, nicknamed "Polecat", was developed in only 18 months, using internal funding.
Aviation Week says the twin-engine tail-less "Horton" flying wing has made 2 flights below 15,000 ft. It is capable of carrying 1,000 lbs. of weapons or sensors in a bay on the underbelly of the aircraft.
