Competition for unmanned aerial vehicles continues to increase day by day. In this regard, countries experienced in UAVs such as Turkey, Germany and the United States are heating up the competition. According to a statement today, the world’s first UAV control center is being established by the US Navy. Here are the details…
US Navy rolls up its sleeves for the world’s first UAV control center!
The United States is the world leader in military aviation. With the F-16, F-22 and F-35 aircraft having proven themselves all over the world, the United States Air Force had a great deterrent. However, it was a bit behind in UAVs.
The US rolled up its sleeves to close its deficit in this regard. It reported that it will add a base that will be unique in the world with a statement made today to its fleet equipped with unmanned aerial vehicles. According to the statement made by the United States Navy, the world’s first unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) control center will be opened on the USS George H.W. Bush Aircraft Carrier.
American officials reported that MQ-25 Stingray drones will be controlled by the UAV control center to be established on the aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush (CVN-77). In short, the US wants to add a technology similar to the TCG-Anadolu UAV and UCAV ship that Turkey added to its fleet last year.
Although UAVs and UCAVs can take off and land on the TCG-Anadolu, it does not have a UAV control center. Thanks to the aforementioned control system, it will be possible to perform all the controls of a UAV from the aircraft carrier. The system, which will be used for the MQ-25 Stingray in the first phase, will then cover all UAV models.
