      @Max T yeah may make people less scared of the concept (ie it IS reliable) Most flights are near automated now (like cruise control) main thing is just people being spooked. Also may work on some ai stuff too, darpa had a fighter ai “training companion” wouldn’t be surprised if something comes out from that project…

    Payload = ability to kill lots of innocent humans, Australia should be spending those millions on sustaining life in their rapidly deteriorating economy, instead of death and destruction and propping up an ailing US industrial war machine with their peoples hard earned dollars.

    Just to be clear, all this innovation stem from the desire to kill other human beings more efficiently.

    Do the blue lights make it perform better? Boeing wants another government chunk of money… over priced, over budget, and over schedule
