This morning, a US Navy Northrop Grumman MQ-4C (reg. 169659 – c/s BLACKCAT6) took off from NAS Sigonella for a SIGINT mission off the coast of Libya.
The drone focused particularly on western Libya, especially in the area off Misurata.
At the same time, a USAF Lockheed C-130J (reg. 15-5831) also took off from Sigonella, heading towards Misurata, where it landed. It is interesting to note the concurrence of the two missions, as it is possible they may be connected
