41
Lost data link is established with?
The unit assigned to the ranges
42
TUAS lost data link procedures will establish what
The deconfliction of all TUAS aircraft for each range by 1000' MSL GPS and data link. Pre-programmed lost data link holding is at 5000 feet MSL with parachute recovery to the center of the circle of the range being utilized, if the data link cannot be made.
