UAV jobs?

I was wondering if anyone knows of any UAV jobs open now or in the near future? I have a TS/SCI clearance, single engine & multi engine pilot certificate with instrument ratings. I was a Supply Sgt. in the Army for 13 years. Any information would be appreciated.

Google ISR group out of Savanah, TN. or Northrop Gruman out of Sierra Vista, AZ. Basically, the ISR group functions as sort of a front company for Northrop Gruman's Iraq/Afgahn UAV program.

I don't sorry. I knew a guy that did a scaneagle tour over in Iraq with them for a year. 1 Year deployment with 14 days off approximately every 4 months. If you stay out of the US for 330 days, the first 90K is tax free. Longer deployment than a lot of other outfits, but I hear they took good care of him. If he ever needed anything, they made sure he got it.

They fly Scaneagle for the Navy and Hunter MQ-5B's for the Army on a Northrop Contract. I think they are also flying Shadow or Raven's now too.

Gunner I was wondering if Insitu is going to be hiring FSR's again soon. I have been checking the website almost everyday. It seems like all of the posts stopped toward the end of 2010. Also I was wondering if I meet their requirements.
I have an ASEL/AMEL with Instrument.
Will get Commercial AMEL by the end of summer.
Clearance isnt current but had a TS/SCI SSBI(Yankee White).
13 Years Enlisted Army.
Associates Applied Science - Professional Pilot -Airplane
Current third class medical (can get Second).

Thanks for any info you can provide.

I've been applying to all the ones I see and haven't heard anything back yet. Northrop Gruman still says "Under consideration by a recruiter" for mine. It's been a month at least.

I have:
Secret
CFI/II
AMEL/ASEL Comm
~300 hours

I don't think we will be hiring off the street for a while now. We conducted a bunch of interviews this winter/spring and selected some folks. I have some friends that were offered jobs but had their class dates pushed back until July. I think training is maxed out.
