New tests suggest that once a drone takes off, it may be a while before it has to land. The U.S. military has shown how drones can refuel while in the air. This ability has sparked discussions of so-called flying gas stations to be used over areas of combat in the future.
"The goal of this demonstration was to create the expectation that future aircraft will be refueled in flight," said Jim McCormick, program manager at the U.S.
