A drone loses again
A BGM167A drone sits on a launcher, preparing to meet its end from an AIM-9 missile fired by an F-15 Eagle pilot from the Massachusetts Air National Guard’s 104th Fighter Wing. The drone serves as a primary target for the F-15 pilots who are participating in Exercise Combat Archer during the Weapons System Evaluation Program at Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla.
