The first operational MQ-25A Stingray™ for the U.S. Navy has successfully completed its first taxi test.
At the push of a button from Air Vehicle Pilots in the Unmanned Carrier Aviation Mission Control System, the Stingray autonomously taxied from the new MQ-25 production facility in Mascoutah, Illinois, to the taxiway at MidAmerica St. Louis airport and executed a series of maneuvers to validate its functionality.
The U.S. Navy’s first MQ-25A is now one step closer to its first flight.
