BEALE AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- Beale added a new Global Hawk to its flock June 30, with the arrival of a Block 20 model of the RQ-4 unmanned aerial vehicle. The Block 20 will be the first of its kind assigned to the base.
Collected from the Boeing Factory in Longbeach, California on 11 June 2008, the aircraft has since been used for essential front-line crew training.
