  • Two US Navy helicopters have been parked next to some cacti at the Pima Air and Space Museum near Davis Monthan Air Force base, Tucson, Arizona. In the arid desert heat we see only the rear sections of the aircraft, their rotors have been moved into a storage position and so echo the arm-like form and camouflaged tones of the cactus branches. The ground is sandy from the desert floor and soft, overhead light casts a shadow beneath the aircraft's fuselage.

  • A Kratos BQM-177i drone target at the Farnborough Air Show, England. Based upon the U.S. Navy’s BQM-177A, the BQM-177i meets the international community’s need for highly dynamic, high-subsonic, sea-skimming, anti-ship cruise missile threat emulation. Capable of speeds in excess of Mach 1 and altitudes above 35,000 feet, the BQM-177i is ideally suited for missions that include testing surface-to-air weapon systems, such as those on naval vessels.
