Next-generation radar to undergo testing aboard Proteus
Proteus takes off from Mojave Airfield near Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., on Thursday, April 27, 2006. It carries the pod that eventually will contain the MP-RTIP radar that will be used on the Global Hawk unmanned aerial vehicle. A year of testing will begin in September once the radar is installed on Proteus. (U.S. Air Force photo)
