UAVs to Fill American Skies on Anti-terror Missions

Tuesday July 15, 2003
Like the now-famed Predator that prowled enemy skies over Afghanistan and Iraq, a new breed of unmanned aerial vehicles - UAVs – will take to the air over America’s borders and seaports to protect them from terrorist attacks. In this Department of Defense press release, the military describes (with photos) tests of these new UAVs sporting names like, Fire Scout, ScanEagle, Mini Falcon and Snow Goose.
