 From Soldiers Radio and Television, this is the Army Now. The Shadow 200, a tactical unmanned aircraft system, or UAS, is preparing for its flight here at Bob Logman. Soldiers from the 1st Squadron, 14th Cavalry Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division begin their precise pre-inspections for the aircraft's launch. Us as maintainers, we get the bird ready, we'll push it down to the launcher. There we perform pre-flight operations, get everything, make sure all the flight surfaces and everything are good to go. Then from there, put the bird on the launcher and let it go. UAS operators take control of the aircraft after its launch, and the responsibilities are vital to the mission. They usually do IED scans or reconnaissance-type missions, making sure to see if they can see any deficiencies or anything in there. That's the Army Now.
