The formation flying is the impressive part. Imagine applying that tech to a swarm of full sized robotic fighters! Seems like conventional fighters using conventional tactics would be overwhelmed. You would be hard pressed to get human pilots to fly that figure eight without disaster.


IMO, aerial combat in the near future is going to be very, very interesting... for those of us not participating and watching from the side lines.Surprised

Am I the only one who likens this to that Tom Cruise movie where they were stopping crimes before they happened (senility prevents me from remembering the title). They unleased all those little robots to try to find him while he was hiding. Actually, while fascinating, I find it somewhat scary as well.
