Auto-pilot is a pretty amazing innovation but that is when it’s assisted by a pilot for take-off and landing purposes. The ‘Boomerang’ developed by BlueBird is a full-function pilot-less hydrogen plane.
The pilot-less Boomerang runs on a special hydrogen-electric fuel cell that allows it to grace the skies for up to 9 hours. This kind of technology is meant for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions.
The pilot-less Boomerang is revolutionary when it comes to military technology, aero-technology and eco-technology.
