00:02.377 --> 00:05.627
(dramatic music plays)

00:16.542 --> 00:19.709
- [Kevin] Got here around six o'clock.

00:19.978 --> 00:23.228
The ground was pretty frozen and it was

00:23.786 --> 00:26.015
very foggy and just, kind of,

00:26.015 --> 00:27.932
kind of, miserable out.

00:30.636 --> 00:32.886
We're here for JASCO Black.

00:32.958 --> 00:36.875
Supporting Sari Bair for
the New Zealand Army.

00:37.942 --> 00:40.330
- [Stephen] We're facilitating
the Kiwis with the

00:40.330 --> 00:41.769
small, unmanned aircraft system.

00:41.769 --> 00:44.936
Also known as the RQ-20 Bravo Puma 2.

00:46.646 --> 00:48.146
- Good, that side.

00:48.666 --> 00:49.499
- Yeah.

00:49.920 --> 00:52.543
- [Kevin] The puma is
military drone that is able

00:52.543 --> 00:54.029
to provide reconnaissance surveillance

00:54.029 --> 00:55.696
over a certain area.

00:56.073 --> 00:58.209
- Six-two-seven-six-four-two-five.

00:58.209 --> 00:59.042
- Yup.

00:59.788 --> 01:01.483
- [Stephen] The Kiwi battery
commander has basically

01:01.483 --> 01:04.618
been tasking us with
what kind of surveillance

01:04.618 --> 01:06.951
or target location he wants.

01:09.423 --> 01:12.923
(whirring airplane noise)

01:13.929 --> 01:16.679
(dramatic music)

01:27.211 --> 01:29.579
We provided the battery commander

01:29.579 --> 01:31.762
with a tablet that has live footage of

01:31.762 --> 01:35.512
exactly what the unmanned
aircraft is seeing.

01:37.311 --> 01:38.914
Even ten clicks out, we're able to

01:38.914 --> 01:40.493
properly control that bird and manipulate

01:40.493 --> 01:41.410
the camera.

01:42.397 --> 01:43.279
If there's anything that looks out

01:43.279 --> 01:45.137
of place, we immediately can provide a

01:45.137 --> 01:48.202
grid and description of what we're seeing.

01:48.202 --> 01:49.952
- Go right, go right.

01:50.524 --> 01:51.476
Yup, there you go.

01:51.476 --> 01:52.776
That's what we're looking for.

01:52.776 --> 01:54.169
- [Kevin] We really
enjoy actually using the

01:54.169 --> 01:55.957
Puma and being able to implement it

01:55.957 --> 01:58.290
into a real world situation.

01:59.185 --> 02:00.648
- [Stephen] It's a good
opportunity and able to

02:00.648 --> 02:01.692
do this with the Kiwis, just because

02:01.692 --> 02:03.852
they've been pretty excited about it.

02:03.852 --> 02:05.222
And the fact that we've actually been able

02:05.222 --> 02:07.335
to provide helpful information.

02:07.335 --> 02:08.918
- Back in man mode.

02:09.587 --> 02:11.120
- It looks like they're getting pretty

02:11.120 --> 02:12.203
keen onto it.

02:13.590 --> 02:14.840
- Right, right.

02:15.131 --> 02:16.131
Now to land.

02:18.590 --> 02:20.007
That was perfect.
