VR-64 help ferry MQ-8B to Mediterranean in short notice

VR-64 was able to transported a MQ-8B Fire Scout to USS Robert G. Bradley in the Mediterranean Feb. 2013 in short notice.

“There was an urgent need to get a replacement MQ-8B out to the detachment on the USS Robert G. Bradley, currently deployed in the Mediterranean Sea,” said Cmdr. Brian Genton, Multi-Mission Tactical Unmanned Aerial Systems (PMA 266) program officer. “With the sensitive nature of the (unmanned aerial vehicle), organic lift was the only option. Upon receipt of our support request, the NOLA almost immediately assigned our lift to the VR-64 Condors.”
