"American Dynamics" VTOL UAV concept. Don't know how serious this is.

Well, it "looks" serious, but nowadays computer graphics make everything "real"...

Well it is a ducted fan, so I approve. ;D

It seems that everyone these days has a UAV to sell to the government. 50/50 between start ups that will die due to funding starvation and "gimmick guys" who will see if they can get on the dole.

There's a number of photos of the wind tunnel model of the AD-150:
