To me. it is something we ought to expand on for our overall capability to help respond to incidents. With their extended range. these UAVs can conduct prolonged surveillance. sweep over remote border areas. relaying information to border agents on the ground. As has been described by some of the people I have met with on this issue. they literally create a communications network from the air to the ground that can get vital information to those who are involved in border security who can more effectively. then. do their job. This process provides critical intelligence about the areas that have previously gone unsecured for so long. and it allows our agents to better prepare and respond to incidents involving both illegal immigrants and drug smugglers. Now. I know there has been the Insitu Group from our State that has provided this technology in our Operation Iraqi Freedom and the global war on terror.
