Manned a/c keep getting more expensive (see: J-35)

Every Service is developing / deploying drones.

Deployment / pre-operational testing is part of that rollout, per standard DoD procurement practice.

Personally, not gonna worry too much until the US Army deploys the 800 Series Terminator.

Well, it's due east of Norfolk and NAS Oceana.

Whether for training or testing, military a/c and refueling there is unsurprising.
