Manufacturing Minute: An Autonomous Combat Drone

British engineers unveil an artificially intelligent combat drone. This is your Manufacturing  Minute.

A British company's secretive project has yielded one of the most advanced aircraft in the world.

Meet the Taranis, a 39-foot combat drone named for the Celtic god of thunder that can reach speeds of more than 700 mph.

The project is exciting — or dangerous, depending on your point of view — because it can maintain contact with its human operator on the ground while appearing virtually invisible to radar.
