First Look: Boeing‘s ’Phantom Ray’ Drone Completes Test Flight

We‘ve already showed you Northrop Group’s stealth drone, the X-47B (watch here). Now Boeing has entered the fray with its Phantom Ray, a stealth-style drone that just completed its inaugural test flight at Andrew’s Air Force Base. But the Phantom ups the ante: instead of being just an unmanned drone controlled by remote control, it can be controlled by a computer.
The LA Times explains:
Boeing Co.‘s experimental drone, dubbed Phantom Ray, flew to 7,500 feet and reached speeds of 205 mph in its first flight. The 17-minute flight took place April 27, but Boeing officials did not confirm details until Tuesday.
The Phantom Ray, which resembles a giant boomerang, is being developed by the Chicago company for a variety of missions. Its stealthy design could enable it to slip behind enemy lines to knock out radar installations, clearing the way for fighters and bombers.
Unlike existing combat drones that are controlled remotely by a human pilot, the Phantom Ray could carry out a mission controlled almost entirely by a computer. A human pilot sitting miles away designs a flight path and sends it on its way, and a computer program guides it to the target and back.
“The first flight moves us farther into the next phase of unmanned aircraft,” Craig Brown, Boeing’s Phantom Ray program manager, said in a statement obtained by the Times. “Autonomous, fighter-sized unmanned aircraft are real, and the … bar has been raised.”
The Times says Boeing doesn’t have a defense contract for the drone, which it’s been developing for the last two-and-a-half years. That could be risky. But the Phantom Ray isn‘t the only drone in Boeing’s new arsenal. The Times details the Ray along with its sister, the Eye:
With a 50-foot wingspan and 36 feet long, the drone was built at Boeing’s complex in St. Louis with engineering support from its Phantom Works facilities in Huntington Beach. [...]
The Phantom Ray is designed to fly at 40,000 feet at speeds of more than 600 mph.
Boeing is also developing another drone at Edwards. Dubbed the Phantom Eye, it has a 150-foot wingspan and is designed to fly for more than four days at a time at altitudes of up to 65,000 feet. It will be fueled by liquid hydrogen. The Phantom Eye’s first flight is slated for later this summer, the company said.

Posted on May 5, 2011 at 12:30pmYes. Very nice, indeed. The question that begs an answer though is this,
Will U.S. taxpayers have to pay huge sums; Military Air Travel Taxes, in order
to keep this thing in the sky. This would necessitate that Air Force jets and
ground warfare equipment will have to pay the same tax rates that are being
considered equitable to seize from ordinary citizens, rich and poor alike.
‘-It’s only fair,’ would suggest Obama. ‘-We want to keep this a level playing
field. The military can’t enjoy paying no taxes whilst American citizens are
being asked to sacrifice in my name. My will be done. My will be done.’

Boeing wants to open a new plant to build some of their new 787 in the Carolinas, but NLB is trying to FORCE them to use UNION labor in Seattle. Boeing does not want to take any work away from Seattle, they just want to supplement their workforce in another state to faster satisfy contracts they already have. Maybe if big union thuggery would get out of the way, Boeing could make even more profit to continue it’s research & development of new technology to keep us safe……think about that for a minute

Ionocrafts, also known as Ionic Lifters, are some of the most ingenious displays of motor-less flight. They function on the principle that a high-voltage current running through small wire will ionize particles in the air. These ionized particles are pushed down by the current and hit neutral air molecules. The collision between the two types of particles creates a very slight upward force capable of lifting a very light object. Although they are not efficient enough to be very practical, Ionocrafts make excellent science experiments and demonstrations of ionic wind.”

No, that is NOT how they function, they function as ASYMMETRICAL CAPACITORS with a SMALL POSITIVE ELECTRODE and a NEGATIVE ELECTRODE with a greater surface area, using ANY MEDIUM as a DIELECTRIC, EVEN VACUUM, PROVEN BY THOMAS TOWNSEND BROWN’S EXPERIMENTS. IONOCRAFT IS A MISNOMER. THEY ARE LEVITATING CAPACITORS.
The phenomenon of antigravitational effects of asymmetrical capacitors was first discovered when electrolytic capacitors being used in high voltage equipment were observed to move when discharged.

Posted on May 5, 2011 at 4:38pmAs Bill Cosby would say, riiiight.
“The old antigravity claim is that by using an Asymmetrical Capacitor Thruster (lifters), levitation can be achieved. By applying charges using the aforementioned device, forces were measures to within +/- 100nN. Forces created this way are independent of polarity. Uniform magnetic fields have no effect on force. Geometrical variations in asymmetry caused little change in force. However, these results best match the coronal discharge effect. With this in mind, there have been some wild claims about complete control of gravitation over the last 80 years (such as those by Thomas Townsend Brown), although, most claims do not go that far. The Office of Naval Research (ONR) DEBUNKED BROWN”S CLAIM, (back in 1952) attributing effects to lunar tides.”
If this really worked, don’t you think someone would be making money off of this already? Or do you think the Oil Companies bought and destroyed the research?

Army Research Laboratory
Force on an Asymmetric Capacitor
by Thomas B. Bahder and Chris Fazi
6. Summary and Suggested Future Work
We have presented a brief history of the Biefeld-Brown effect: a net force is observed on an
asymmetric capacitor when a high voltage bias is applied. The physical mechanism responsible
for this effect is unknown. In section 4, we have presented estimates of the force on the
capacitor due to the effect of an ionic wind and due to charge drift between capacitor electrodes.
The force due to ionic wind is at least three orders of magnitude too small. The force due to
charge drift is plausible, however, the estimates are only scaling estimates, not a microscopic
model.
More experimental and theoretical work is needed to gain an understanding of the Biefeld-
Brown effect. As discussed, the most pressing question is whether the Biefeld-Brown effect
occurs in vacuum. It seems that Brown may have tested the effect in vacuum, but not reported it
(Appendix B). More recently, there is some preliminary work that tested the effect in vacuum,
and claimed that there is some small effect—smaller than the force observed in air; see the
second report cited in reference [2].
