Don't believe it will happen for a very very very long time. While attending the flag panel at this years Tailhook convention one admiral was heard to say something like the new Joint Strike Fighter might be the last manned fighter. So maybe as the life of that fighter runs out in say 30 - 40 years, I don't think you'll see a unmanned 727 on the next couple of bids...............
