This wild new Black Hawk prototype is part drone, part Transformer

New Black Hawk Prototype Revealed

Sikorsky has introduced a new Black Hawk prototype, transforming the 50-year-old design into an autonomous aircraft.

The U-Hawk, as it's called, retains the familiar size, shape, rotors, and green paint job of the original, but with a new front end and no pilots, giving it a sci-fi feel.

The new front end — along with the lack of pilots — may strike former passengers or crew alike as strictly sci-fi.

The goal of the U-Hawk is to accompany manned missions in the air as an autonomous aircraft.

Author's summary: Sikorsky's new U-Hawk prototype is a game-changer.
