482 ATKS MQ-9 Nose Art by – Squadron Posters!
The 482nd Attack Squadron (482 ATKS) is a United States Air Force unit, stationed at Shaw Air Force Base, South Carolina, where it is an operational squadron of the 25th Attack Group, operating the General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper unmanned aerial vehicle. The first predecessor of the squadron was organized in 1917 as the 70th Aero Squadron. After being redesignated as the 482nd Aero Squadron, it deployed to France as a construction unit, returning to the United States in 1919, where it was demobilized. The squadron current mission is to train General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper crews outside of combat missions. It also operates Reapers in the United States Central Command and United States European Command areas of responsibility.Â
The MQ-9 Reaper is a multi-mission, remotely piloted aircraft designed for persistent attack and reconnaissance. With its advanced sensors, extended endurance, and precision strike capability, the Reaper provides real-time intelligence and close air support to U.S. and allied forces. Capable of carrying Hellfire missiles and precision-guided bombs, it plays a vital role in counterterrorism, surveillance, and battlefield operations. The MQ-9’s versatility and lethality make it an essential asset in modern warfare. Check out this stunning 482 ATKS MQ-9 Nose Art by – Squadron Posters!
