    A Lorica Technologies Inc. Mule 28 unmanned aerial system releases an inert M1A3 Bangalore torpedo onto a concertina wire obstacle during a proof-of-concept training iteration June 22, 2026, on Range 22 at Orchard Combat Training Center, Idaho. Soldiers with Bravo Company, 741st Brigade Engineer Battalion, 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team, worked through a deliberate crawl-walk-run safety progression, beginning with inert drops, then advancing through inert charges paired with blasting caps and detonating cord, before delivering a live Bangalore charge against the wire. The Mule 28 was custom-built by the Ashland, Oregon, manufacturer to lift and release the demolition charge. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Maj. W.
