00:01.190 --> 00:03.270
- [Reporter] Unmanned aerial systems are just one of many

00:03.270 --> 00:04.980
tools the US Army has adopted

00:04.980 --> 00:06.793
to adapt to the modern battlefields.

00:07.330 --> 00:10.610
- The purpose of UAS is to get the ground troops

00:11.090 --> 00:13.463
a heads up when something's about to happen.

00:14.430 --> 00:16.530
Instead of people have to go out and look,

00:17.550 --> 00:19.557
we can look ahead of them.

00:19.963 --> 00:21.780
- [Reporter] But the UAS is more than just

00:21.780 --> 00:22.680
an eye in the sky.

00:23.570 --> 00:26.020
- So today, we're conducting flight operations.

00:26.020 --> 00:28.893
We're gonna be training as communications relay.

00:29.700 --> 00:33.553
And we're gonna set the R27 Shadow up as a retrain station.

00:33.980 --> 00:35.640
- [Reporter] Because of adaptations like these,

00:35.640 --> 00:38.143
the US Army continues to be ready and resilient.
