    A U.S. Army Sergeant assigned to the 101st Airborne Division is preparing or inspecting a small FPV (First-Person View) racing/tactical drone. He is wearing FatShark FPV goggles pushed up on his forehead and is handling the drone's battery connection. The setting appears to be an outdoor training area with grass and trees in the background.

    Soldiers assigned to the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) test a quadruped robot and unmanned aircraft system during a fast-rope insertion and extraction system and special patrol insertion and extraction system demonstration at The Sabalauski Air Assault School, Fort Campbell, Ky., May 22, 2026.

    The demonstration, held during Week of the Eagles, highlighted how intelligent strategy, adaptability and rigorous training enable Soldiers to effectively integrate emerging technology into combat operations.

    A military helicopter, consistent with a UH-60 Black Hawk, is airborne against a partly cloudy sky with multiple personnel suspended below it on a single rope or cable. The personnel appear to be attached in a vertical chain formation, consistent with a Special Patrol Insertion/Extraction (SPIE) or similar helicopter extraction technique. A tree line is partially visible at the bottom right of the frame.
    The image shows a Boston Dynamics 'Spot' quadruped robot dog on the ground and a multi-rotor drone hovering above it, both positioned in front of a large black wall mural reading 'The Air Assault School' with a military Air Assault badge insignia. The robots appear to be on display or demonstration at a U.S. Army Air Assault School facility. Both units are equipped with sensor payloads, suggesting reconnaissance or mapping capabilities.
    A military helicopter is photographed from directly below, providing a dramatic worm's-eye view of its underside against a partly cloudy sky. The aircraft appears to be a UH-60 Black Hawk or similar utility helicopter, painted in dark olive/black military livery. The low-angle perspective reveals the undercarriage, tail boom, main rotor blades, and tail rotor assembly in sharp detail.
    A U.S. Army Sergeant assigned to the 101st Airborne Division is preparing or inspecting a small FPV (First-Person View) racing/tactical drone. He is wearing FatShark FPV goggles pushed up on his forehead and is handling the drone's battery connection. The setting appears to be an outdoor training area with grass and trees in the background.
    Multiple military personnel in camouflage uniforms are suspended vertically from a single rope or cable against an overcast sky. The soldiers appear to be conducting a Special Patrol Insertion/Extraction (SPIE) or similar helicopter extraction technique, hanging in a chain formation. Each individual is harnessed to the central line with arms outstretched for balance.
    A quadcopter drone is hovering in mid-flight in front of a large dark wall bearing the text 'THE AIR ASSAULT SCHOOL' in gold lettering, along with the U.S. Army Air Assault Badge emblem. The drone appears to be a professional-grade multi-rotor UAV equipped with a camera gimbal and what appears to be a sensor payload. The image is sharp and well-composed with the drone in focus against the blurred signage background.
