MBDA's Brimstone- 70 MPH Strike- Contains material (c) Crown 2013
Published on Oct 22, 2013
MBDA Missile Systems demonstrates the superiority of the combat-proven Dual Mode Brimstone with a series of successful test firings in October 2013. These tests demonstrated the enhanced performance derived from the latest guidance system upgrades being added to the Brimstone missile under the United Kingdom Ministry of Defense's Brimstone 2 program.
The trials involved firing five Dual Mode Brimstone missiles at a series of fast moving targets traveling up to 70 mph. Brimstones were fired from a variety of launch conditions including long range and high off-boresight and against targets traveling through cluttered road environments.
Every shot achieved a direct hit on the target.

NASA prepares to fly a large unmanned aircraft in public airspace without chase plane for first time
Published on Jun 14, 2018
NASA’s remotely-piloted Ikhana aircraft performs flight tests in preparation to fly in the National Airspace System without a safety chase aircraft. On June 12, 2018, NASA successfully flew the historic flight.
The flight will help to move the United States one step closer to normalizing unmanned aircraft operations in the airspace used by commercial and private pilots. The Ikhana aircraft is based at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California.
