It is capable of remaining airborne for up to 12 hours and carrying a payload of 30 pounds. During the experiment, it launched the Switchblade, which the Marine Corps said struck a target more than 15 miles away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c[The Marine Corps has] the Marine Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Squadrons 1, 2, and 3 that fly the MQ-9s in the Group 5 level of assets, but it would be great for the Regiment because we\u2019re outside of the [air] wings,\u201d said Chief Warrant Officer Two Christopher Leone in the service\u2019s release. \u201cWe\u2019re supporting the Ground Combat Element that doesn\u2019t have an asset that can fly as far as the Group 5, so this is something that hasn\u2019t been tested before.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently, the regiment only has Group 1 drones, which stay airborne for far less time \u2014 typically between 30 and 90 minutes \u2014 and operate over much shorter distances. The July tests evaluated whether a larger drone could lengthen the regiment\u2019s reach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AeroVironment personnel flew the JUMP 20-X while Marines observed because the unit does not have Marines trained to fly Group 3 drones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The experiment comes as the Marine Corps this month also announced the creation of a new small drone <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2026\/07\/07\/marine-corps-creates-new-small-drone-training-unit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\">training<\/a> unit, a move that underscored the integral role drones are now playing in modern warfare. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Marine Corps this month tested a new way to give regiments long-range reconnaissance and strike capabilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":111677,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":69,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[101,149,12,25,69],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3405],"class_list":["post-75978","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-techwatch","category-news","category-newsletters","category-your-marine-corps"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"2ZFE6QGWDZBEJD2LUJO5ABSKXE","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-military\/2026\/07\/27\/marine-regiment-tests-longer-range-drone-capability\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
