Block 20 Communications Relay

Allows Close Air Support Pilots to connect with Ground Forces up to 10 times sooner at 300 miles away rather than 30 miles result: more accurate and safer firepower when needed. Lt Gen Stephen Mueller, Vice Commander, USAFE: Block 20 Com Relay is a game changer

Global Hawk is an ideal ISR asset to aid in disaster relief. It directly complements ongoing efforts in the region and represents how advanced technology can provide crucial and timely support to senior officials and search, recovery and disaster relief efforts. First ever on-station replacement over Japan Enables 24/7 Operations over the target areaan unblinking eye First RPA to operate in an NBC environment
