So I was part of the first ever drone delivery of medical supplies (just a demo) at a RAM event in Wise, Virginia. One of the tasks we had to do beforehand was contact every person along the flight path to beg them not to shoot it down. Wise, VA is hillbilly heaven. Thankfully everyone cooperated. I also managed a drone delivery project at VTTI in Blacksburg. That one was much more controlled. But there was one public demo planned on campus at VT. It was public knowledge. Some of the frats wanted to dress in fatigues and carry super-soaker type stuff and “battle” the drone(s) and steal the tacos (it was Chipotle.) You may recall a certain tragedy on the VT campus that made this idea not so silly. In the end the demo was scrapped.
If there are all of these large drones flying around are they flying high enough to threaten commercial or private planes. Wouldn't the FAA issue a warning if this was the case? Why not put one of those special ops helicopters in the air so it could fly close to a "dronne" and check it out? We don't need someone shooting down a small plane with a lucky shot
If there really were a lot of drones our special forces would have checked them out with a badsss chopper OR The drones are our drones and they're looking for something BIG. RUMOR: They are our drones and they're looking for a dirty bomb or nuke by scanning for radiation and the gov't doesn't want to alarm the public. I remember reading that a dirty bomb attack on NYC might cost $1 trillion to $100 trillion to clean up. Maybe trying to degrade Russia isn't so smart (they have a long reach). Maybe we should work with Russia to prevent the proliferation of radioactive material or bombs, which is what they wanted.
Why does it have to be a dirty bomb? I've long thought that adversaries could have easily brought in the components for a regular nuke and assembled it in some warehouse in a populated city (cities).
not sure why it has take. so long to act Federal government set to deploy high-tech drone detection system to NY as experts remain baffled
I think many of the reported drone sightings are airplanes flying in one of the most dense air traffic areas of the country. However, a few might be drones and my bet is that they are associated with the US Intelligence community. Different spokesman say they don't belong to the military, so that would be technically correct.
2 things we know: 1. Our military is usually pretty slow to act to new threats 2. Drones utilizing AI to attack sensitive infrastructure are coming. They will be numerous and probably fairly cheap. Who would you.rather have working on a problem like that? Corrupt and slow witted gov't or military bureaucrats? The military-industrial complex? Elon Musk? (Give me Elon)
We had a local kid flying his drone around people’s back yards. Folks took pot shots at it because you can legally discharge firearms in our area on their property. Problem is, shooting at drones is a federal offense. Good news is someone caught the drone landing in the family’s yard and got them in trouble.
Haven't read this yet but could be interesting. Mystery drones shut down NY airport. Edit: Looked at article. Not a big deal imo. Judge for yourself
are you serious with this stuff or just trolling? you really need new sources for real information and less fantasyland an iranian mother ship off the coast of the US? sad to think that anybody would believe anything from someone like that, let alone enough for him to have a position to have an audience. OT, and just as ludicrous. banning weather manipulation under the belief it was responsible for Helene and Milton. people actually believe this quackery?

He was using it to mess with people’s pets. He also had a GoPro that he was using to look into people’s homes.
