General Atomics XQ-67A

Supersonic and Experimental Aircraft

The General Atomics XQ-67A is a developmental loyal wingman style unmanned combat aircraft built by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems for the United States Air Force. It was selected in February 2023 to meet the Air Force Research Laboratory Off-Board Sensing Station program, an aircraft that would fly ahead of crewed jets and pass data back to them, and it was shown publicly on 8 February 2024. Its first flight came on 28 February 2024 from the Grey Butte facility near Palmdale. The Air Force describes it as the first of a second generation of autonomous collaborative platforms built on a common chassis, and it became the prototype from which the FQ-42 collaborative combat aircraft was developed.
