2.1.4 RQ-5A/MQ-5B Hunter
User Service: Army Manufacturer: Northrop Grumman
Background: The RQ-5 Hunter was originally a joint Army/Navy/Marine Corps Short Range UAS that the Army intended to meet division and corps level requirements. A gimbaled EO/IR sensor is used to relay video in real time via a second airborne Hunter over a C-band LOS data link. Hunter deployed to Macedonia to support NATO Balkan operations in 1999 and to Iraq in 2002. Although full-rate production (FRP) was canceled in 1996, seven low-rate initial production (LRIP) systems of eight aircraft each were acquired; an additional 18 aircraft were purchased in FY04 for delivery in FY05. All 18 aircraft will deliver as MQ-5s which have been modified to carry the Viper Strike and BLU 108 munitions. A competitively selected Extended Range/Multi-Purpose (ER/MP) UAS will begin to replace Hunter as early as FY07. Hunter is expected to remain in service through 2009.
