Pilots' Goose cooked as uncrewed vehicles prove cheaper and perhaps more versatile

The US Air Force wants to spend around $5.8 billion on up to 2,000 pilotless AI-powered drones, to serve alongside human pilots.

Now, the Air Force believes it can build up to 2,000 Valkyrie aircraft, each one costing around $3 million – well below the price of crewed fighter jets like the F-35 or F-22.[PDF] to cost $5.8 billion over that period – with $3.03 billion required in FY 2028 alone.
