In September 2010, the RQ-4N was officially designated the MQ-4C. [20] The Navy MQ-4C differs from the Air Force RQ-4 mainly in its wing. While the Global Hawk remains at high altitude to conduct surveillance, the Triton climbs to 50,000 ft (15,000 m) to see a wide area and can drop to 10,000 ft (3,000 m) to get further identification of a target.
Northrop (NOC) is going to provide product supportability analyses for operational level maintenance, task analysis and provisioning data involving MQ-4C Triton jets
