Boeing hinted at both capabilities with a “Take a peek into the future” video circulating online and explained how the uncrewed aircraft could be controlled by a two-seater US F-15EX fighter aircraft with battle management controls.
The aircraft have previously completed testing earlier this year, in which a single human operator onboard a RAAF E-7A Wedgetail was able to successfully control two Ghost Bats in a mission against airborne targets.
In a note to staff, the airline’s domestic chief executive, Markus Svensson, said the midlife aircraft would provide “bridging capacity” and receive new interiors to make they appear as-new to customers.
