Carrier based flight testing

Article describes preparations for the X-47B. More important to add something when it actually gets on a carrier. -Fnlayson (talk) 18:34, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Armament on Specs list

I tried to remove the list of armament and sensors from the specs page, and I see they were added back, with a source. Unfortunately, the source is a little bit misleading. It states "provisions" (similar to how this Navy page lists it. Those provisions are not part of the actual aircraft. It has two "weapons bays", which are basically for sizing only. They do not have the capability to carry or release weapons. Furthermore, while the aircraft is "provisioned" for an ISR payload (like EO/IR, GMTI, etc.), it doesn't actually carry any payload of that sort.

I will amend the specifications to reflect the sources and say "provisions for". -SidewinderX (talk) 15:21, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Design and Development section has problems. The use of all caps for simultaneously, and multiple exclimations '!!!' (both already changed) aren't very encyclopedic. Additionally the lack of citations are a problem. The first few paragraphs read like a conspiracy theory. If there is artlicles supporting your assertions, please reference them. 72.211.150.15 (talk) 17:27, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
