The Navy ran a test and the gizmo seems to work. First flight was over a year ago. I wonder how long it will be before we have robot jet fighters. Probably a couple of weeks at least. Even if they aren't as good as manned fighters, and they won't be at first, they will be cheaper and if they get shot down it's not like you are losing a pilot.
War is a funny business. Afghan has managed to stay rooted in the 14th century in spite of the British, the Russians and us (the Americans). Meanwhile China is enlarging their nuclear arsenal.
