Boeing X-48 je majhno eksperimentalno trimotorno brezpilotno letalo, ki je namenjeno raziskovanju karakteristik BWB krila oz. letečega krila. Letno testiranje X-48B se je začelo julija 2007. Pozneje so ravzili dvomotorno različico X-48C, ki so jo testirali od avgusta 2012 do aprila 2013.
Poganjajo ga trije turboreaktivni motorji JetCat P200, vsak s 24 kg potisk (0,23 kN)
