Today, I was visiting Insitu's flight test site in Gilliam County, Oregon. I'd been there before in June, where I witnessed the launch and recovery of a ScanEagle drone. While last time I only managed to record the launch, this time I only got the recovery.
But Insitu was also showing-off their latest Integrator
drone. It's much larger than the ScanEagle and will form the basis of the future
US Navy and Marine Corps RQ-21A STUAS drone fleet. While the full-up version
has completed developmental and operational testing on land and is gearing up
for sea-trials, the Department of the Navy has bought two Integrators for an
early operational capability.
