    Aircrew from the 489th Attack Squadron perform preflight safety checks before initiating the Automated Takeoff and Landing Capability for an MQ-9 Reaper at Creech Air Force Base, Nevada, Aug 3, 2021. This capability is a key enabler for MQ-9 Agile Combat Employment and, combined with the MQ-9’s next software upgrade and receipt of the portable aircraft control station, will change how it will be employed in theaters worldwide.

    The image shows a ground control station interface with a specialized keyboard, trackball, and joystick controls visible in the foreground. A monitor displays what appears to be a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) or drone control software interface with multiple data readouts, status indicators, and mission control buttons. A human hand is visible operating the keyboard in low-light conditions.
    The image shows a military aircraft Head-Up Display (HUD) or cockpit Multi-Function Display (MFD) screen captured during what appears to be a takeoff sequence. The display shows numerous flight parameters including airspeed, altitude, heading, engine data, and navigation information overlaid on a forward-looking camera view of a runway. The text 'ATLC Takeoff Active' is prominently visible, confirming an active automated takeoff control mode.
