Real Life Ghost(X-9/AIF-7S), Boeing's X-51A

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

I always loved that the Macross mecha designs and engineering are inspired by current and future aviation.

Boeing's X-51A's unmanned fighter made history (May 1st), today in the news, reminds me of the Macross Plus back story.

Is this the future of aviation, less pilots and more unmanned drones?

Moved from the toys forum, as this is clearly not a topic about Macross toys.
