Great recovery by the pilot!
That’s a recon plane. I didn’t know they were manned.
Can anyone tell if it actually touched the water??
Hawkeyes have always been manned. The US Navy has been experimenting with launching and landing unmanned ISR aircraft from carriers (such as the X-47B program), but they’re not operational yet.
