Published 3 weeks ago
Description

U.S. military and FAA test high-energy laser against drone threats in New Mexico, aiming to enhance drone risk management. Recent incidents highlight the need for improved coordination and protocols, as a military laser mistakenly targeted a Customs and Border Protection drone, and a laser hit a party balloon, causing flight delays. Flight restrictions remain in place near Fort Hancock until June 26th for national defense, with exceptions for air ambulances and rescues with military approval. Mexican cartels use of drones for smuggling and attacks adds urgency to these laser defenses along the border.
