An Aphrodite assault drone at takeoff from a relatively remote airfield in Norfolk, England. The drone carried a payload of 30,000 lb of Torpex, an explosive that was 50 percent more powerful than TNT by mass. Drones required a pilot and a co-pilot because the remote control system was insufficient for safe takeoff. NARA Ref partial 60799AC.
