Boeing's New Spy Plane

Wingspan : 150 ft (46 m) 
Takeoff gross weight : 9,800 lbs (4,445 kg) 
Cruise speed : 150 kts 
Maximum speed : 200 kts 
Altitude : 65,000 ft 
Engines : (2) 2.3L 150 horsepower 
Endurance : 4 days at 65,000 ft 

Let that sink in - Wingspan equal to the width of a good size building lot. 

It's relatively light (at 5 ton), slow, flies at twice the altitude of commercial transport. 

It's powered by the equivalent of 2 compact car engines and stays aloft for 4 days.

  1. Awesome concept but I don't think this is a new device considering that the video is posted at 2009 at the end. I bet that it is use today and we're just now hearing about it.

  3. Constant progress for war.., on anyone and anywhere. Everything I see around me today here in the U.S. is geared toward aggression both within and without.
    How in the world did we get here?
