The Global Hawk, built by Northrup Grumman, features a bulging forehead common among UAVs. This model is built for NATO's ground surveillance program; other variations include a maritime version for the United States Navy and a signals intelligence version for the German Ministry of Defense. The Global Hawk was one of many UAVs on display at the Farnborough International Airshow in England.
