    Staff Sgt. Alexander Spradling, an instructor with the 1-117th Military Police Battalion’s Multifunction Company prepares to launch an RQ-28A, a small, unmanned aircraft during the Small Unmanned Aircraft System Master Trainer pilot course at Tullahoma’s Volunteer Training Site, June 23. Unlike the Army’s basic operator course, the Master Trainer Course prepares experienced operators to certify future SUAS pilots, manage unit training programs, and advise commanders on unmanned aircraft system employment. Facilitated by Tennessee’s 117th Regional Training Institute, this is the first course of its kind in the Army National Guard. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by 1st Lt. Bailey Breving)

    A U.S. Army soldier in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniform is operating what appears to be a drone remote control unit outdoors, smiling and looking upward. A second soldier is visible in the background near a covered structure, appearing to point or gesture. The setting appears to be a military training area with a pavilion or open-sided building in the background.
    A multi-rotor drone (hexacopter) is captured mid-flight against a backdrop of dense green trees and an overcast sky. The drone appears to be actively flying, with all six propellers visibly spinning and motion-blurred. The image is taken with a shallow depth of field, keeping the drone in sharp focus while the background trees are blurred.
    A quadcopter drone is captured mid-flight against an overcast sky. The drone features a dark frame with four rotors in motion, a vertical antenna, colored indicator lights, and a black payload box suspended beneath the central body. The image is sharp on the drone with a blurred background, suggesting a shallow depth of field.
    A quadcopter drone is resting on a gravel and grass surface, photographed at ground level with a shallow depth of field.

A vertical antenna extends upward from the central body of the drone.
    A small quadcopter drone is resting on top of a black hard-shell transport case labeled 'RQ-28A'. The case is sitting on a gravel surface with grass visible in the background. The setup appears to be an outdoor field deployment or demonstration of a compact UAV system.
