That was pretty cool...thanks for the heads up Dean. Lockheed won the competition since they were able to do a short runway takeoff, achieve supersonic speed, and land vertically all in one flight...somthing Boeing had yet to achieve. But Boeing is still #1 in the sales of unmaned aircraft, they were saying.
