Zitat:New US Navy airwing elements take shape on carrier Bushhttps://www.janes.com/defence-news/air-p...rrier-bush
Two lynchpin aircraft of the future air wing of the US Navy (USN) achieved recent milestones during at-sea operations aboard the aircraft carrier USS George HW Bush (CVN 77) while the ship is under way in the Atlantic Ocean, USN officials reported.
The USN completed an Unmanned Carrier Aviation Demonstration of its MQ-25 Stingray unmanned air system prototype in December aboard Bush, laying the groundwork for future carrier-based unmanned aerial system operations, Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) officials confirmed on 20 December. [...] The milestone appears to mark the first time that MQ-25 and F-35C aircraft were operated on the same carrier during the same under way period, USN officials confirmed.
