UAV

   
 

Unmanned aerial vehicles help snoop out enemy movements, uncover large caches of explosives and give U.S. commanders a 24/7 real-time view of their battlespace.

 
 
  • Eagle Eye
    Forget "first you see me and now you don't," with the Eagle Eye it's more like "You never saw me and you never will."
     
    Hunter
    Meet the Hunter: designed for real-time imagery intelligence, artillery adjustment, reconnaissance and surveillance.
     
    Reaper
    This high-flying, long-range, ordinance-packed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is the perfect "Eye in the Sky" prowler.
  • Scan Eagle
    The Boeing/Insitu ScanEagle UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) is a tailless, high-aspect-ratio swept wing reconnaissance scout.
     
    Vigilante
    The Vigilante was based off a commercially available helicopter kit designed to be built and operated by recreational pilots.
     
    WASP
    WASP and its control module are small enough to fit in a school size backpack.
