An MQ-4C Triton drone, valued at $240 million, has crashed during the Iran war, according to data from the United States Navy and publicly available flight logs.
The drone disappeared from flight-tracking platforms while operating near the Persian Gulf, rapidly losing altitude shortly before vanishing from public tracking.
The Triton, a Northrop Grumman-made maritime surveillance drone, is designed to operate alongside Boeing P-8 Poseidon aircraft for anti-submarine warfare and can fly above 50,000 feet for over 24 hours.
