Boeing X-46

How I found it:

Too big and its not manned so the B2 is waaay out.
Looks experimental since one engine and 'landing' on an aircraft carrier
Digital could confirm experimental

Started at google...
went on wiki searched experimental aircraft
looked under X designations

Boeing X-45 Unmanned combat air vehicle
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_X-45

45A
**edit**:imaged failed X-45A

Close try later varient

45C


went back and looked at this:

Boeing X-46 Unmanned combat air vehicle (proposed, never built)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_X-46

**edit**:imaged failed X-46

Confirmed it using google images

Very good CCPL, I thought it might have taken a bit longer before anyone found it,
still, I guess it's you're turn now.
