Multidomain drone threats confront the Army in many domains.
With kamikaze drones being widely used in the Ukraine war, countering unmanned aerial systems remains a weapon of concern for the U.S. Army. However, the service is not only focusing on combating aerial systems, but those on land and sea as well, officials said Oct. 14.
The Army operates on rivers, lakes, and the water side of the littorals. It has ferries, bridges, and watercraft in its own "navy." And the Army fights in the air, as well as being threatened from the air. So I don't see this as diverting attention from its core competencies of large-scale conventional or irregular combat operations that I sometimes drone on about.
Although taking on responsibility for space drones that attack Army targets would seem like a mission bridge too far, best handled by Space Force or the Air Force.
