KEY INTELLIGENCE TAKEAWAYS & SUMMARY
- General Atomics established a dedicated remote command facility in North Dakota for U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM)-supported MQ-9A Reaper operations.
- Thanks to the new concept, while the number of military personnel outside the continent is reduced, operational cost savings of over $10 million annually are targeted.
- In the project carried out under the COCO (Contractor-Owned, Contractor-Operated) model, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities will be managed seamlessly from the homeland.
