Houston Texas MQ-9 Unit based at Ellington JRB.

Whether it is protecting the shores of the United States from enemy attack, or carrying the Stars and Stripes into combat, Houston's famed 147th Attack Wing has consistently performed its duties in a typical outstanding manner. Today's 147th Attack Wing provides (24 hours a day, 7 days a week ) MQ-9A Reaper combat sorties which provide theater and national-level leadership with critical real-time Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) and Air-to-Ground Munitions and precision strike capability. The men and women assigned to the unit are justifiably proud of their membership and point to a long and colorful history to back that claim.
