The article discusses the key aspects and features of the U.S. Army's General Atomics Aeronautical Systems MQ-1C Gray Eagle program, the largest unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) program. The program has led to the U.S. Army being close to deploying the first medium-altitude long-endurance UAV system.

Development of the Predator C unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has begun by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc (GA-ASI). No aircraft details or development schedule information could be provided as it is very much still in its early stages.

The Canadian Air Force has chosen the Predator B unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for domestic and international surveillance missions, but the government is wary about proposed sole-source purchase and has ordered to service to re-examine other UAVs. General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, San Diego, has joined with General Dynamics Canada in order to propose the Predator B for the Air Force's 500 million Canadian dollar Joint Unmanned Surveillance and Target Acquisition System (JUSTAS) program.

The US army announced that it was awarding the General Atomics, a four-year USD214 million system design and development contract, to produce the US Army's future fixed-wing attack unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and the Extended Range/Multi-Purpose (ER/MP) UAV. The contract entails General Atomics to deliver 11 systems, each of which will include 12 vehicles, five ground control stations and other support equipment.

General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc (GA-ASI) has begun flight-testing Raytheon's SilentEyes minidrone on its Predator B unmanned aerial vehicle as part of a US Air Force-sponsored evaluation. The air force would operate SilentEyes from the Predator B, to provide visual confirmation below the cloud line of ground targets that the Predator picks up with its onboard synthetic-aperture radar or infra-red sensors while operating above the clouds.
