Sikorsky has unveiled a revolutionary Black Hawk prototype, transforming the 50-year-old aircraft into an autonomous vehicle designed to accompany manned missions.
The U-Hawk, as it's called, retains the familiar size, shape, rotors, and green paint job of the original Black Hawk, but with a futuristic twist: a new front end and the absence of pilots.
The new front end, along with the lack of pilots, may strike former passengers or crew alike as strictly sci-fi.
