Although I like Pike's comment about cultural hegemony, I do think there
might be one good application for SS Jr.

As a rapid deployment vehicle for drones. UAVs can be flow over hostile
airspace to very remote areas and deployed from a cargo compartment of
an SS Jr. Deployment anywhere in the world in 2 hrs if you don't care
about drone recovery.

The problem as with all these concepts is that SS Jr. needs a friendly
place to land or there is no 'shuttle' component to the concept.

I would suggest the Air Force seriously talk to the Navy about means
to land SS Jr. on a carrier. Of course I can just see the Air Bosses
freaking out about yeilding deckspace to an incoming USV being piloted
remotely by a wing wiper... Not on my watch Farce boy....
