The US Navy is looking to add aerial refueling capability to its carrier-based X-47B stealth drone, which would extend the range at which carriers could strike targets and make them less vulnerable to attack. With refueling, the X-47B could remain airborne for up to 100 hours and posses a combat radius of 3,000 nautical miles. A fighter jet typically has a range of 400 miles and because it is limited by crew endurance can remain airborne for up to 10 hours. Source: Wired
