Scorpion's First Taxi - McConnell AFB


I keep looking at this jet and it finally dawned on me. This reminds me of a weaponized and enlarged "Honda Jet" type airplane.  I wonder if we're seeing the start of a new trend.  Articles have been written about the West pricing itself out of the fighter business.  UAVs seem to rapidly following the manned airplane model.  Are jets like the Scorpion the future?
