A Boeing Defence Australia’s MQ-28 Ghost Bat, a production representative test aircraft, is towed to a simulated forward area refueling point during Exercise Valiant Shield 2026 on Rota, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, June 28, 2026. FARP allows combat aircraft and helicopters to rapidly refuel and rearm closer to the frontline, drastically reducing turnaround times and extending their operational range.
