Is it possible to bolt a probe to a drop tank to allow a quick-fit for in-air fuel reception?
Perhaps a modular external tank that simply hangs from an existing "wet' bomb rack?
Maybe this is possible, but I am not an engineer I will not argue :)

Aster 30 Block 1NT
The missile is designed to intercept and destroy a wide range of air threats wide area defence (1500 km), such as supersonic anti-ship cruise missiles at very low altitude and fast flying, high performance aircraft or missiles.
Aster is primarily operated by France, Italy, and the United Kingdom and is an integrated component of the PAAMS air-defence missile system, known in the Royal Navy as Sea Viper. Aster 30 has been successfully incorporated into a land based SAM system SAMP/T (Surface-to-Air Missile Platform/Terrain)

If you do not erase my initials, then of course you can use it.

And why this picture?
 
LO. Flying wing. Edge alignment. This is from official GA-ASI video.
Just a friendly tip for some correction.
 
BAE Systems UCAV
The U.S. DARPA awarded the contract to BAE Systems to design a full scale demonstrator concept UCAV with Active Flow Control technology. The aircraft’s ability to maneuver in flight without conventional flight control surfaces will enable improved performance, maintainability, and survivability.

Air blown out at 90 degrees will create significant amounts of drag.
OTOH if you blow air out tangentially - almost parallel - to the wing surface, you increase the velocity of local boundary layer airflow and also decrease air pressure = more lift on that portion of the wing.
As for re-directing engine exhaust ... I am curious about how much can be done by simply blowing high speed jets of air onto the edges of the exhaust flow.

I'm not an engineer, it's hard for me to talk about this :)
