- Edited US Navy video from the first deck trials of the Northrop Grumman X-47B unmanned combat air system demonstrator (UCAS-D), on the aircraft carrier USS Truman on Dec 9, 2012. The second X-47B air vehicle, AV-2, is maneuvered around the deck using the wireless hand controller, or Control Display Unit (CDU) on the operator's forearm. The UCAS-D operator stands behind the flick-deck director and follows the same hand signals used when controlling a manned aircraft on a carrier deck. The X-47B will take-off and land from a carrier at sea in 2013.

They should just allow the plane captains to drive the thing while it's on the deck, and transfer control to the pilot just before the cat-shot.
While the X-37B is on the beck it controlled by one of the crew who is standing next to it. Once it has left the deck it has no pilot, it's autonomous.
Makes me think of...Cyberdyne Systems in Terminator and that Arnold speech of unmanned planes....
I can't wait to see carrier landings. This UAV is scary badass - glad it's on my team!
is this supposed to be a new jet or something?
hmmm.....will the plane captains,yellow shirts and cat crew still have to salute the pilot? And during final checks on the cat when an actual pilot raises his hands to allow a visual that he is off controls who is monitoring the driver of a uav to make sure he or she isn't fiddling with the control panel?
they say it will be a long time before it takes off and lands on the carrier we will see right now its just going thew the motions right now
why the yellow vest guy give that signal to the plane while the person who control the plane just beside him
If its unmanned why do they need the guys on deck guiding?
IT NEVER WAVES BACK >:[
