The RAFs first Protector squadron has stood up this month.

The recently arrived UAV apparently wears full squadron marks.

Waddo FB recently showed some photos.

Looks like PR009?

So that makes two, PR005 apparently c/n BC013 and this PR009.

PR009 is also coded SM.

This was out this morning doing engine runs, hopefully they'll be flying soon. Not sure how many of these have been delivered.
