MQ-9 Reaper to Replace MQ-1Predator

Issue: 04-2018

US Air Force has announced that the MQ-1 Predator will be replaced by the MQ-9 Reaper with an air-to-air missile capability. The first steps in the effort has seen the Reaper’s manufacturer General Atomics tasked with developing the Reaper Air-to-Air Missile Aviation Simulation. However, no additional details on this capability has been given. To date, the Reaper has been employed for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and strike missions only. The inclusion of air-to-air combat in its mission set would represent a significant expansion of its capabilities.
