Hegseth has ordered a sweeping acceleration of drone deployment

…In two new memos, Hegseth stripped away legacy policies he says have stifled innovation. For the first time, colonels and captains can independently procure and test drones — including 3D-printed and commercial models — without higher-level approval.

Hegseth pointed to Ukraine, Israel, and Iran as proof that drone warfare has revolutionized combat. He expects the U.S. to achieve unmanned dominance by 2027, with force-on-force drone combat training beginning next year.
