Hunter-Killer is an unofficial project name based upon an Aviation Week & Space Technology article. When USAF releases an official name, this article will be renamed to suit.

The U.S. Air Force's Hunter-Killer program is a series of five unmanned combat air vehicles, one of which will be selected for production in 2007 or later.

The five candidate proposals are:

Raytheon has proposed a sixth option, whereby they would offer a combination of sensors, communications systems, and other mission-related systems as a package, and then choose an airframe at a later date. Raytheon's perspective is that, as long as it performs to a minimum set of specifications, the individual airframe is less important than the systems it will carry.

katedoak: @waybis I think that the fact that they want a Hunter-Killer satellite capability reinforces the fact that they can't be trusted.
