The RQ-4D Phoenix is a NATO-owned high-altitude, long-endurance (HALE) unmanned aerial vehicle derived from the Northrop Grumman RQ-4B Global Hawk Block 40, serving as the core of the Alliance Ground Surveillance (AGS) system. It provides persistent, all-weather intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) with advanced MP-RTIP AESA radar for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging and ground moving target indicator (GMTI) tracking. Key capabilities include flights over 30 hours, operations above 50,000 feet, and real-time data dissemination via robust communication links.
