Home > Military > Drones > FPV Drones
The Ukraine conflict has highlighted the capabilities of FPV drones on the modern battlefield. The U.S. military has fallen behind in the ability to develop and field FPVs when compared to other countries (Ukraine, Russia, etc.) Both U.S. conventional and special operations forces are working to catchup in the technology and fielding of this new battlefield capability.
