More than 100 jobs will be supported by production of a new unmanned combat aircraft in Northern Ireland.
Work on the aircraft, nicknamed the"loyal wingman", is set to begin after £30m of government investment and Spirit AeroSystems in Belfast has been selected to lead Team Mosquito in the next phase of the project. The aircraft will be designed to fly at high speed alongside fighter jets, the Ministry of Defence said.It will be the UK's first uncrewed platform able to target and shoot down enemy aircraft and survive surface-to-air missiles.The director of Future Combat Air at the MoD, Richard Berthon, said:"Project Mosquito is a vital element of our approach to Future Combat Air, rapidly bringing to life design, build and test skills for next generation combat air capabilities.
We will need unmanned combat aircraft against China, where they can swamp you with man power. Lose a good number of men and you’re sunk.
Sounds like their engineers got inspired after watching the 2005 movie “Stealth” once too many times.

Seems to be a contradiction in terms. The last thing an aircraft needs is anything ground-breaking.
