🇺🇸🛸The Americans are seriously concerned about protecting military bases from drones at a systemic level.

The Commander of the U.S. Air Force has announced the creation of the Point Defense Weapon System, a system for base defense that will combine kinetic (physical impact) and non-kinetic (electronic warfare, lasers, etc.) forces and means to protect airbases (airfields, critical infrastructure), as well as a new military occupational specialty for service members involved in countering unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

✨In other words, protecting bases from drone threats will become a primary, not secondary, responsibility for specifically assigned service members, which will define a clear set of responsibilities, specialized entitlements, equipment, and weaponry, as well as combat training programs.

At the same time, changes are being considered in procurement for this system to create a basic list of equipment and weapons for the rapid acquisition of sets for organizations protecting different types of facilities.
