Spc. Trever Weber, a U.S. Army paratrooper assigned to the 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment, 173rd Airborne Brigade, throws a small unmanned aircraft system (SUAS) Raven into flight prior to expected enemy contact in Hohenfels Training Area, Germany, during Saber Junction 19 (SJ19), Sept. 22, 2019.
Forward observers who double as unmanned aircraft system (UAS) operators can utilize equipment like the Raven to observe enemy targets from a safer distance and different perspective.
SJ19 is an exercise involving nearly 5,400 participants from 16 ally and partner nations at the U.S. Army’s Grafenwoehr and Hohenfels Training Areas, Sept. 3 to Sept. 30, 2019. SJ19 is designed to assess the readiness of the U.S. Army’s 173rd Airborne Brigade to execute land operations in a joint, combined environment and to promote interoperability with participating allies and partner nations.
