Next-gen transponder flown on UAV
ARLINGTON, Va.,[url=http://www.hotyoupro.com]The north face jackets clearance[/url], June 14 () -- BAE Systems reports it has successfully flown its next-generation Identification Friend or Foe system for the first time on a high-altitude UAV.The AN/DPX-7 reduced size transponder, which was carried aboard a MQ-4C Triton unmanned aerial vehicle -- is half the size and weight of other transponders, the company said, and provides enhanced air traffic control information and navigational capabilities."BAE Systems' reduced-size transponder advances the safety of the Triton -- and other aircraft -- because it helps sense and avoid other planes, enabling successful navigation through congested airspace," said Sal Costa, product line director at BAE Systems in Greenlawn,[url=http://www.trueireligion.com]True Religion Jeans Outlet[/url], N.Y., where the RST system is manufactured. BAE did not provide additional details on the transponder or the flight test aboard the UAV.The MQ-4C Triton is built by Northrop Grumman. It has a flight endurance of as much as 24 hours, can fly as high as 10 miles and can cover 2,000 nautical miles.
