US Army Evaluates Training and Logistics for Small Drones

The US Army is preparing to integrate small drones into its forces, with a goal of fielding one-way attack drones to every squad by October. To achieve this, the Army is hosting a drone warfighter competition to explore training and tactics changes. The competition also aims to address logistics challenges, such as how much equipment can be carried by soldiers. Breaking Defense reports that the Army has reduced red tape around drone ownership and tracking, which should alleviate concerns about accountability.
