Defense and Space are one of the best aerospace distributors and manufactures in the industry. They are always figuring out was to diversify themselves from the competitor and that is what always them to be at the top of the market.

Refueling is very important if an airplane need to stay in the air longer and this has been done for many years, however, how efficient this process is can make a difference.  Lockheed Martin has stated that they are working on a new concept that of a wing-body tanker aircraft for refueling fighter jets such as the F-22 and the F-35. This concept was displayed at the AIAA SciTech forum. Wind-tunnel testing has already started by Lockheed martin on a much smaller model to test for more aerodynamic solutions, also engineers are using this data for the actual design of the Hybrid Wing Body (HWB). Data is also going to be used for a potential tanker program with a similar body design. Having a stealth refueling jet is very important because without having one it might give away the position of a stealthy aircraft. Read more >>
