N281PR (cn 001) Heat-haze screwed up all the distant images of the Proteus on finals... so I'm afraid I'll have to do with this side-on! |

N281PR (cn 001) The Proteus is a high altitude research platform, which can carry different types of payloads, it is seen carrying the Multi-Platform Radar Technology Insertion Program (MP-RTIP), an USAF project led by contractor Northrop Grumman to develop the next generation of airborne air-to-air and air-to-ground radar systems. Proteus can reportedly be operated remotely from the ground, but for this test flight a crew was on board. |

N281PR (cn 001) A weird aircraft design, very unusual to the eye. Proteus is a high altitude research platform, which can carry different types of payloads, it is seen carrying the Multi-Platform Radar Technology Insertion Program (MP-RTIP), an USAF project led by contractor Northrop Grumman to develop the next generation of airborne air-to-air and air-to-ground radar systems. Proteus is able to stay airborne for quite a long time and enjoyed the company of a chase plane (Piper Cheyenne) on this day. |

N281PR (cn 001) One of the most interesting aircraft I have ever seen, pretty different from your standard airplane! N281PR is seen resting on the South Ramp at HNL as a beautiful Hawaiian sunset leaves dramatic colors in the sky. |
