In the United States are working on the creation of a flying aircraft carrier.
The US Department of Defense is considering the possibility of creating a flying aircraft carrier, which will be able to launch small unmanned aerial vehicles like "Gremlin". In fact, these drones are designed for group operation, which increases the area of the reconnaissance territory, and provides almost complete invisibility for radar monitoring systems.
At the moment it is known that the base will be the Lockheed C-130 Hercules aircraft, and the project itself is expected to be realized by 2020.
It is necessary to clarify that such a program has been developed for more than 10 years, so, by the time of its completion, the project may simply lose its relevance.
