RQ-4 Global Hawk — flying right now

A live count of RQ-4 Global Hawk aircraft currently broadcasting a position anywhere in the world, from community ADS-B receivers. Type code Q4.

Watch it live in Squawk

Squawk draws the RQ-4 Global Hawk with its own silhouette on a live map — and can notify you the moment one takes off anywhere in the world, or comes within range of you.

Other aircraft types

Counts reflect aircraft transmitting an ADS-B position that community receivers can hear, identified by their broadcast type code. Aircraft on the ground, out of receiver range, or not transmitting a type are not counted, so this is a live floor rather than a fleet total — military aircraft in particular transmit selectively.
