Now this is a true gem. In this new brave world of UAVs, the Scaneagle is a revolutionary system - because it actually works. Right now. No need for complex parachutes or landing gear and with one heck of an endurance for such a small craft, it is something that can be launched and recovered without the need for complex infrastructure like runways or nets, just a pole with a wire for it to snag on. It's affordable, deployable and relatively simple to operate, and gives the warfighter a true over-the-horizon eye in the sky.
