An R80D Sky Raider drone controlled by 1st Special Forces Group (Airborne) Green Berets hovers shortly after its launch, at Yuma Proving Ground, Ariz., Jan. 19, 2026. Silent Eagle is an exercise that is conducted yearly with partners from other countries. The training expands on conventional and unconventional strategies to overcome adversaries. Drone training provides means for reconnaissance without putting Green Berets in harm's way on the battlefield.
1st SFG(A) conducts special operations throughout the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command areas of responsibility, in order to support command objectives and U.S. national interests. The group maintains and employs units of action to execute the full spectrum of special operations at a moment's notice with allies, partners, and the joint force. Committed to excellence and pursuit of tactical mastery, the group aims to uphold the legacy as the Indo-Pacific’s preferred, and most lethal special operations entity. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt.
