Fire Scout is first UAV to fly on biofuel
The US Navy reached a milestone in its quest to gain energy independence today, when an MQ-8B Fire Scout successfully flew the first unmanned biofueled flight at Webster Field in St. Inigoes, Maryland.
The Unmanned Aircraft Systems Test Directorate piloted the helicopter fuelled with a combination of JP-5 aviation fuel and plant-based camelina. The biofuel blend reduces carbon dioxide output by 75 per cent when compared to conventional aviation fuel.
The MQ-8B Fire Scout Vertical Take-Off and Landing Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle provides critical situational awareness, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), and targeting data to the forward deployed warfighter. Fire Scout is designed to operate from all air capable ships and is currently providing ISR support during its first-land based deployment in US Central Command area of responsibility.
Fire Scout is the seventh aircraft to demonstrate the versatility of biofuel through its use in all facets of naval aviation.
