    When a bird strike occurs, data is collected for analysis. The Smithsonian Institution Feather Identification Lab in Washington, D.C., processes samples to identify wildlife involved in aircraft strikes. The information obtained from these investigations benefits partners at many levels, not just the Navy, helping to shape future operations.
