Lockheed Morphing UAV
(Promotional video from Lockheed - August 2007)
"High performance jet fighters have used a variety
of morphing mechanisms in the past such as variable-sweep wings and
fowler flaps to expand the flight envelope and enhance mission
capability. The Morphing Aircraft Structures Program takes this
concept to a higher level. Radical shape changes such as a
significant increases or decreases in wetted area could allow a
single platform to conduct two or more diverse missions. The ability
to perform both high altitude persistent Intelligence, Surveillance
and Reconnaissance and also rapidly respond to Time Sensitive
Targets could provide the warplanner with options not previously
available. Seamless skins, smart actuators and adaptive flight
control technologies are key to this revolutionary approach to
flexible combat aircraft design. Integration of network centric
interoperability and tailored survivability could produce a weapon
system that compliments state-of-the-art systems including the F-22A
and F-35."

"The future of warfare lies within

Predator system, from the Ground Control Station in Las Vegas to a
Ku Band satellite in orbit, then back down to the Predator in-flight
over the battlefield." -
