World’s First Tanker Drone / Boeing MQ-25 Stingray #Shorts

##World’s First Tanker Drone / Boeing MQ-25 Stingray #shorts This is the world’s first deck-based aerial refueling drone, the mq-25 Stingray. The U.S. Navy plans to buy 72 units by allocating about 13 billion dollars for their purchase. Several such unmanned tankers will be based on each US aircraft carrier. The Stingray is capable of delivering 7 tons of fuel to a range of 1,000 kilometers and provides four to six aerial refuelings, which provides a significant capability enhancement. For an aircraft carrier Strike Group with an unmanned tanker, the air group almost doubles its combat radius. The carrier-based Super Hornet fighter-bomber will be able to increase its range from 800 km to km which allows the carrier to attack from previously impossible ranges from the shore. Outside the range of enemy anti-ship missile systems. usnavy #usnavyships #navy #usmilitary #boeing #boeingnews #boeingaircraft #mq25
