"MARINE CORPS AIR STATION CHERRY POINT, N.C. - Eight members of the Civil Air Patrol and members of United States Northern Command visited Cherry Point Aug. 26 for joint departure and arrival testing with Marine Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Squadron 2. "
"Participants conducted the testing using two RQ-7B Shadow unmanned aerial vehicles. The UAVs were used to provide in-depth information taken from their high-tech cameras and infrared equipment while relaying real-time video and images to a ground control station to help the ground control station assess situations and make important decisions quickly.
During this testing the UAV's provided surveillance while operators tested departure and approach procedures. Participants also evaluated the Shadows' ability to track and follow larger aircraft like the Cessna 182 Skylane. "
Outstanding!
