A U.S. Air Force MQ-9 Reaper assigned to March Air Reserve Base, Calif. lands at Shaw Air Force Base, S.C. for the first time in history on Feb. 14, 2024. The 25th Attack Group, located at Shaw AFB, is home to three operational MQ-9 attack squadrons who conduct operations across the world remotely from Shaw. This historic flight served as a proof of concept demonstrating the ability to use a new satellite launch and recovery capability, which enables remotely piloted aircraft to get to any location in the world and set up an operation rapidly, in line with Agile Combat Employment (ACE).
