08 Jun Unmanned tanker drone refuels a fighter jet
United States Navy made history last Friday as an unmanned tanker drone refueled a manned jet in the skies for the first time.
The Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet connected to the Boeing-owned MQ-25 Stingray drone mid-air and transfered 325 pounds of fuel to the fighter jet, the Navy said Monday. Aerial refuelling was successfully carried out during the roughly 4.5 hour test flight.
