reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA634462 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The California Air National Guard ANG proposes to establish a mission that would train crews in the maintenance and operation of the MQ-1 Predator unmanned aerial vehicle UAV. The activities would be coordinated and supported by personnel of the 163d Reconnaissance Wing 163 RW, formerly the 163d Air Refueling Wing, located at March Air Reserve Base ARB in Riverside, California. Although the operational mission, classroom training, and administrative functions associated with this mission would occur at March ARB, the Launch and Recovery Element LRE site is proposed to be established at a geographically separate location, the Southern California Logistics Airport SCLA, in Victorville, California, or alternatively at El Mirage Airport, near Adelanto, California.
