If you have some spare change, can you send a bit to help save this museum ship (USS The Sullivans)?

MQ-25 first tanking
The USN announced that they had conducted the first aerial tanking to refuel a manned aircraft. (an F-18). I am still puzzled by this use of a UAV. It would seem much more useful in a combat role. However, it may be that the MQ-25 may eventually become multi-role and this is the way to introduce it into service and gain experience with it.

These types of tests need to be conducted a lot more often, especially by the seaborne forces of the USN and our allies. If you would have peace, prepare for war.
