General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI), has revealed a first picture of a missile-carrying air-to-air combat drone. LongShot, being developed under a contract from DARPA, will launch from larger UAS or human-crewed aircraft and charge into hostile airspace armed with its own air-to-air missiles, able to fire on enemy targets if it were so commanded.
