Default Air Force misguided on X-37B operations costs?

As a semi-stealth UAV that's LEO and nuclear and/or VX weapon capable,
it's a rather ideal WMD.



You should go to the new Air Force Recruiting homepage.
They make it pretty clear that between unmanned
air/spacecraft, and space based observation the
US intends to ...own the globe.

They actually show a Space Operations Mission Manager
and a Satellite Vehicle Operator hovering over a
virtual globe as if it was their own target rich playground.

Mouseover the Space Command semi-circle
at the bottom. Looks like the bridge of the Enterprise.
