Sikorsky revealed a Black Hawk prototype transformed into an autonomous aircraft, aiming to accompany manned missions in the air.
The U-Hawk, as Sikorsky calls it, retains the familiar size, shape, rotors, and green paint job of the Army's 50-year-old Black Hawk, but with a new front end and no pilots, giving it a sci-fi feel.
The new front end may strike former passengers or crew alike as strictly sci-fi.
