Top Navy brass will be focused on the U.S.S. George H.W. Bush Wednesday, as the service tries for the first time to land a drone the size of a fighter jet aboard an aircraft carrier.
The experimental aircraft, the X-47B, will take off from Patuxent River Naval Air Station in Maryland and land on the carrier, which is stationed off the coast of Virginia.
