RAND warns U.S. Army counter-drone training falls short of operational needs A recent report by the RAND Corporation has found that the US Army’s approach to counter-UAS training is underdeveloped and fails to prepare units for the demands of modern drone-saturated battlefields. The study, conducted for the XVIII Airborne Corps and published under RAND’s Arroyo Center, concludes that current training programs are too narrow in focus and are not adequately integrated across units and command levels. “Most BCTs are inadequately trained or not trained at all on almost all collective unit sUAS and C-UAS tasks,” the report warns. #CounterUAS #CUASTraining #USArmy https://lnkd.in/ey6QA69Y
