Toward the Unknown: 5th RS provides highest eye in the sky

A U-2 Dragon Lady piloted by Maj. Ricardo (last name withheld due to operational security constraints), 5th Reconnaissance Squadron director of operations and U-2 pilot, taxis down the flight line before flying a mission at Osan Air Base, Republic of Korea, March 8, 2014. Originally used by the CIA to fly high-altitude intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions over the Soviet Union, the U-2 is still used today for both tactical and strategic reconnaissance in multiple AORs to deliver imagery and signals intelligence to decision makers throughout all phases of conflict.
