發佈日期：2016年2月26日
In 2013, the X-47B demonstrated the first ever carrier-based launches and recoveries by an autonomous, low-observable relevant unmanned aircraft. In April of 2015, the X-47B once again made aviation history by successfully conducting the first ever Autonomous Aerial Refueling (AAR) of an unmanned aircraft. AAR unlocks the full potential of what an unmanned surveillance, strike and reconnaissance system can do in support of the Navy. These historical demonstrations solidify the concept of future unmanned aircraft and proved that the X-47B can perform standard missions like aerial refueling and operate seamlessly with manned aircraft as part of the Carrier Air Wing.
在2013年，X-47B由一个独立的，低可探测相关的无人机演示了首次舰载发射和回收。在2015年4月，在X-47B再次通过成功进行无人机的首次自主空中加油（AAR）制成的航空历史。 AAR解锁什么无人驾驶侦察，打击和侦察系统能够支持海军做的全部潜力。这些历史的示威巩固未来无人机的概念，证明了X-47B可以执行标准的任务像空中加油和有人驾驶飞机作为舰载机联队的一部分无缝运行。
