Supersonic Jet Nirawak Dark Sword
A photo showing the figure of an unmanned jet fighter made in China sparked a stir in the military industry.
Although not yet clear whether the figure of the jet fighter jet is still a design, prototype or a real product, causing a hard polemic.
"It's a nightmare for America," writes Bussines Insider quoted Sputnik, Wednesday (06/06/2018). The drone fighter jet has the name Anjian or the Dark Sword.
Still according to Bussines Insider citing its source, the jet fighter jet has supersonic speeds, such as the F-22 Raptor fighter jet.
This combat jet fighter also has a vertical stabilizer, just like the F-22 Raptor has, according to Royal United Services airman Justin Bronk.
Design and if it really can be realized, Dark Sword really will be a revolution of air weapons, and will change the course of war in space.
The Dark Sword concept was first raised in 2006 at the Zhuhai Airshow event in Guangdong Province. The following year the Dark Sword model was taken to the Paris Air Show.
The US Navy several years ago had accepted the design of a jet fighter jet, but the program was later turned off. Aircraft industry giant Northrop Grumman thrusts X-47B.
The prototype has undergone a test flight in 2013. The unmanned aircraft was released from a US aircraft carrier.
However, the US Navy chose to develop another drone aircraft that could pass the long flight with refueling in the air.
This program is known as MQ-25A Stingray. The plane will become a fuel-carrying drone and is expected to officially enter the US military ranks in mid-2020.
Back to Dark Sword, technically if a large jet-engined combat drone is officially launched, it will reduce much of the role of conventional pilots.
Moreover, if produced a lot, will be its own advantages. The number of banyai not only excel in quantity, but clearly in quality will be able to match the opponent.
Justin Bronk underlines, unmanned jet fighter with supersonic speed this has greatness because maneuver is no longer hanging conventional pilot.
Technically, conventional pilots when flying supersonic jets have maneuverable limitations. Human pilots are limited when faced with the effects of gravity.
The maneuver can not be extreme because if it exceeds the force of gravity it can cause a fatal accident for the pilot. He can faint when flying, and dangerous for his plane flight.
According to Bronk, the emergence of Dark Sword's photo gives a strong message, the public is dragged to see what China wants to show.
China is serious and they are very master of aerospace technology. It might even be a step ahead of the US superpower
