Hi –
As noted in today’s blog by Navy UCAS Program Manager, Captain Jamie Engdahl (http://navylive.dodlive.mil/2013/07/09/unmanned-x-47b-readies-for-final-touchdown/), the team is preparing for arrested carrier landings this week on the USS George H.W. Bush.  Photos and video will be flowing as soon as the events are complete so check back at www.navy.mil and www.northropgrumman.com/ucas to see the latest.

In addition, new videos have been posted to youtube, facebook and twitter –
