USS Harry S. Truman prepares for arrival of X-47B

A carrier integration team from the Unmanned Combat Air System Demonstration (UCAS-D) recently carried out software testing aboard USS Harry S. Truman to prepare for the X-47B first landing on board next year.

During at-sea testing, the Navy UCAS team gathered valuable feedback from fleet air-traffic controllers and air-department personnel about the usability of the new software and lessons learned about how to most effectively operate UAVs in the carrier environment.
