October 4, 2011 |

In Maryland, the U.S. Navy announced the first unmanned flight of an MQ-8B Fire Scout powered by biofuel at Webster Field in St. Inigoes. The unmanned helicopter was fueled with a combination of JP-5 aviation fuel and biojet produced from camelina.

The MQ-8B Fire Scout Vertical Take-Off and Landing Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle provides critical situational awareness, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), and targeting data to the forward deployed warfighter. The Fire Scout is designed to operate from all air-capable ships.
