No one here thinks this looks similar in concept to the movie Stealth? I wonder if it's nickname is "Tinman"? They even use the acronym UCAV in the movie. I figured that was something they made up for that movie, but it appears to be actual military jargon.

Yep, it's real military terminology, but now they aren't known as UCAVs anymore -- it's J-UCAS (Joint Unmanned Combat Air Systems). Have to include the friggin' "J" these days, or it won't get funded. Retarded politics. :roll:

Don't worry...we're already working on dog brains at Area 51 to counter.
