It’s new, it’s cool, and it’s finally in Iraq. “It” is Honeywell’s new Micro Air Vehicle (MAV). The MAV looks like a flying saucer, and even moves somewhat like one, too.

Using a small two cylinder engine and a remote control, the MAV allows troops on the ground to get a closer look at anything within the range of its controller without putting anyone’s life at risk. This can be especially helpful when checking out items such as suspected IEDs.
