FORCE MULTIPLIER: Boeing unveils its 38ft-long autonomous ‘Loyal Wingman’ drone that uses AI to fly alongside piloted aircraft and is designed to carry missiles or bombs.

The unmanned drone, dubbed the ‘Loyal Wingman,’ is 38 feet long, has a 2,000 nautical mile range and is equipped with onboard sensors that enable it to conduct intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions, as well as electronic warfare.

It’s particularly suited for long-distance surveillance missions that humans can’t typically perform, according to the firm.

Wingman may also be able to carry missiles or bombs at some point in the future. Boeing hopes to sell the planes to customers around the world, though for now it remains a prototype design.

Faster, please.
