About MQ-4C Triton
MQ-4C Triton is Northrop Grumman's high-altitude, long-endurance uncrewed aircraft system for persistent maritime intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. A 360-degree multi-intelligence sensor suite detects, tracks and classifies objects across wide ocean areas while sharing data with military command networks and crewed platforms.
The aircraft operates above 50,000 feet for more than 24 hours and has a stated range of 7,400 nautical miles. Its radar maintains long-range tracks and produces imagery in high sea states, while later Integrated Functional Capability 4 aircraft add expanded signals-intelligence functions. Triton combines the air vehicle with ground control, communications and mission systems; sensor fit and operational capability therefore follow the fielded configuration and customer programme.
