Description

NAVAL AIR STATION PATUXENT RIVER, Md. (May 4, 2013) The X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System (UCAS) demonstrator completes its first shore-based arrested landing, or "trap", at Naval Air Staion, Patuxent River, Md. The unmanned aircraft used its tailhook to catch a carrier representative cable, known as the MK-7 arresting gear, to quickly stop the aircraft. This type of recovery is required aboard aircraft carriers.
