Boeing Unveils Unmanned Phantom Ray Demonstrator: "Boeing has unveiled the fighter-sized Phantom Ray unmanned airborne system, a test bed for advanced technologies.
'We are on a fast track, and first flight is in sight,' said Darryl Davis, president of Boeing Phantom Works. 'Phantom Ray is on schedule to fly in December, about two years after this project began. This is a tremendous accomplishment for Boeing and the Phantom Ray team.'
Phantom Ray is scheduled to begin taxi tests this summer. The first flight in December will be followed by up to nine additional flights over approximately six months."
