Federal agencies sign memo to speed counter-drone deployment over US airspace
Five federal departments signed an interagency MOU on Nov. 9, led by the White House Task Force to Restore American Airspace Sovereignty, to standardize how counter-drone systems are tested and deployed in civilian airspace. Hegseth reissued a corrected Nov. 5 counter-drone memo on Nov. 10, and JIATF-401 is drawing on the Intelligence Community for threat assessments to guide procurement.
