First demo flight means the first time it's been flying in public, right? I'm sure there was an X-47, either a mockup or prototype at the Pax River show a couple years ago. There was a Global Hawk there, too!

I have a poster from Grumman with all of the planes they have made over the years. The last one on there was the X-47b. It couldn't have been too secret.

i recall seeing spy pictures of the a/c landing in either Bagram or Kabul a couple months ago, and CGI videos of the type a few years ago. it's not like the F-117 that was developed in complete secret... but now the cat's out of the bag and i'm curious as to what it's capable of.
