THE STARGATE OMNIPEDIA
U.A.V.
"Unmanned Airborne Vehicle." The craft, when launched from the S.G.C., is capable of surveying the surface of alien worlds several kilometers from the Stargate, transmitting data back to the S.G.C. The device is useful for conserving time when it would take many hours for a unit to reach the surveyed areas on foot. It can also be modified with U.C.A.V. armaments, where a powerful missile is mounted to each wing.
