FORT HOOD, Texas, Dec. 23 (UPI) -- The U.S. Army has retired its Hunter unmanned aircraft system after 20 years of service.
The medium-altitude RQ-5 Hunter, developed by Israel Aerospace Industries and manufactured by TRW -- now part of Northrop Grumman -- saw service in the Balkans and early in the Iraq war, providing U.S. military commanders with intelligence and surveillance information.
