South Atlantic Ocean (Oct. 22, 2003) -- A BQM 74 remote-controlled
drone is launched from the flight deck aboard the guided missile
frigate USS Robert G. Bradley (FFG 49) to serve as a target for an
anti-air warfare exercise conducted as part of UNITAS 45-04
Atlantic. The drone was launched and controlled by a detachment
from Fleet Composite Squadron Six (VC-6) deployed aboard Bradley in
support of the exercise. UNITAS provides the participant navies the
opportunity to train together and develop interoperability in a highly
technical environment. Hosted by Argentina, this year's Atlantic
Phase also has the participation of naval forces from Brazil, Peru,
Spain, Uruguay and the United States. U.S. Navy photo by
