Abstract

The article highlights the growing demand for a wider use of U.S. unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in non-military operations such as environmental monitoring, law enforcement and disaster relief. It mentions that efforts to expand the use of government-owned UAS focus on the Northrop Grumman Global Hawk and General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Predator Bs which are being operated by the U.S. Air Force, Customs and Border Protection and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
