The prototype of an intelligence gathering aircraft designed as an optionally piloted vehicle (OPV), built by Scaled Composites as the Model 355. Although Northrop Grumman announced that the aircraft was "in production for an un-named US Government service, to whom deliveries were scheduled to begin before mid 2019", the project was formally cancelled in April 2022. The possibility of future production remains, however.
