- mlyle 4y agoDon't forget e.g. the M/D-21. Or Orbital Pegasus, or... air launched cruise missiles, or... This is an idea we flirt with, to varying success, over and over and over again.

Launching pilotless flying things from piloted flying things has been very continuously a thing in the military. (OTOH, recovering flying things to other flying things may be making a comeback.)
- AaronM 4y agoGood point, that's actually what I meant.
