We sleep better knowing Global Hawk drones are manning the skies

Friday, Jul 22, 2016

There are moments when some of us here at Hamilton Caster dream about a future where we can control all our factory floor inventory by drone. The urge usually strikes when it’s about 80 degrees and sunny out…

Until that day comes, we’re happy to leave the drone capabilities to the good guys at NATO, who have acquired five new Global Hawk surveillance drones to be their eyes in the sky. The Hawks can travel by rain, sleet, hail, or snow at high-altitudes and will provide real-time surveillance to protect our ground forces and border and maritime security.

Watch as these sleek spotters travel at speeds of up to 310 knots.
