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. The exercise allows pilots and maintainers valuable training in the employment of live air-to-air munitions and tests the capabilities of the weapon system. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt.
