New Addition to the Tourist and Event Center

The newest addition to our static aircraft display, the RQ-2B Pioneer is now on display at the Tourist and Event Center. Internationally, Pioneer drones are perhaps most remembered for their role in the 1991 Gulf War, when a Pioneer launched by the battleship Wisconsin observed Iraqi troops on Faylaka Island surrendering shortly after Missouri’s attack on their trench lines. When Navy officials offered to transfer a Pioneer to the Smithsonian Institution, curators at the National Air and Space Museum specifically asked for the UAV that Iraqi troops surrendered to during the Gulf War. There were seven (7) of the original forty-seven (47) RQ-2B Pioneer Aircraft restored for display.

Marine Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Squadron-2 (VMU-2) 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing Cherry Point assisted with the assembly of this vehicle.
