Pentagon Hunts for Drone Dominance
Description
The Pentagon is betting big on drone innovation, skipping traditional defense giants to tap into drone racers, hobbyists, and everyday drone makers—spurred by Ukraine’s battlefield success and a $53 billion drone warfare budget. In Georgia’s first “Drone Dominance” challenge, 26 companies competed, with British-Ukrainian Skycutter and Neros (founded by ex-champion Soren Monroe-Anderson) leading the pack—Neros already locked in $120 million and poised for its first major contract. Next week’s Michigan showdown? No room for coasting—only winners.
