Boeing MQ-28 Ghost Bat has flown its 100-Flight. This is a milestone for both Boeing Australia and the Royal Australian Air Force.
“This milestone demonstrates the maturity of our program in a growing market and is a testament to Boeing’s groundbreaking lead in developing collaborative combat aircraft capabilities for current and future applications," Boeing Defense Space & Security interim President and CEO Steve Parker said at the Avalon International Air Show in Australia.
The flight test program will finish with a series of demonstrations later this year which will include MQ-28 aircraft teaming with crewed assets, such as E-7 and F-35, to complete operationally relevant missions.
The 100th flight block showcased the operational paint scheme which is on display at Avalon Airshow for the first time.
