In August, the first UAV-to-soldier airdrop test will occur in California, using a small unmanned airplane and guided parachutes. An all-composite T-20 Arcturus unmanned airplane will drop 10-pound supplies during a test at Camp Roberts. The T-20 is being made to fly missions up to 16 hours long, navigate waypoints and land autonomously.
