This is the unmanned aircraft that flew around the world in 2016. It’s been sold since then and has been used for testing.

Sold in 2019 to a Spanish‑American company and later tested by the US Navy, the aircraft went down on Monday, according to a safety report released by US authorities, confirming information reported by Swiss broadcaster RTS on Friday.​
The US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said the aircraft suffered a loss of power before crashing into the ocean. It was completely destroyed. No one was on board and no injuries were reported.​
