This is "Taranis" the most advanced military drone, what have made in the United Kingdom, and it has more capacities than U.S NAVY's X-47B. This autonomous STEALTH-drone have global strike capacity, by flying straight from the UK to any target in the world. This system is created by BAE-systems and it has been told to be the most sophisticated military system in the world. The ability to operate autonomously makes possible to operate unlimited time in airborne if those drones would have airborne refueling capacity or in this case, refueling planes in the sky operating with them. Here we must ask, when comes the "Lancaster II" bomber in the use of RAF?


Those highly advanced drones can also make strikes with nuclear- or conventional weapons to any target, any time on the Earth. The shape of the machine is similar with X-47B, because of STEALTH-technology and also this shape would give the best aerodynamic results, what can be imagined. The unlimited strike capacity is the very impressive thing and in some rumors is, that there are plans to build nuclear-powered versions of those drones. Those nuclear-powered drones might have the capacity to fly even years without airborne refueling. In nuclear-powered aircraft, the reactor would able to make the electric arc in the tube of RAMJET of flap ramjet, and that thing would allow the system to fly.


The problem with nuclear-powered aircraft is if the reactor if touching with propellant, it would make it radioactive. That's why there must be used the closed-cycle cooling system, where the heat of the reactor would transfer to air. And this cooling system consists of the turbo-generator, what would make the electric arc in the motor, and also gives electric power to that aircraft. When we are thinking the shape of the aircraft, we can make many size planes with the same drawings. If we keep the intercourse of dimensions same, we can make even C-5 "Galaxy"-sized drone, what looks like X-47B. And this brings interesting things in my mind. And here I must ask: how many secrets are found in the safe boxes of the defense authorities of the United Kingdom and the USA?
