Default Inspections have begun on Air Force space plane

Shouldn't it be noted that some recent prototypes, like the X-33
began as 1/3 scale of the intended final design.
And that the x-37b is about 30 feet long, and the shuttles
about 120 feet.

If the military decides to built a new 90 foot unmanned version


They won't. The only thing those morons at the Air Force know anything
about is on how to suck DICK.



However, don't be surprised if you run into a orbital bomber version, as
that's how the X-37B got started:
