Tuesday, 22 July 2003 97/2003 UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES DEPLOYING TO SOLOMONS The Australian Defence Force will deploy for the first time on operations four Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) as part of the regional assistance mission to the Solomon Islands, Defence Minister Robert Hill announced today. "This is the first deployment of an unmanned aerial vehicle on operations by the Australian Defence Force," Senator Hill said. "It represents a significant advance in the development of our network centric warfare capabilities." Senator Hill said the Australian designed and built Aerosonde aircraft, operated by SAAB Australia, would be equipped with day and night sensors and communications equipment.

I wish them well. Eric
