We’ve been covering Europe’s drone crisis for months, from military reconnaissance drones shutting down Munich Airport to the EU’s scramble to build a multi-billion-euro “drone wall.” But while European intelligence agencies stumbled through bureaucratic fog, seven journalism students just delivered the most comprehensive investigation yet into who’s actually behind Germany’s mysterious drone swar
We have been reporting on how private equity and venture capital are reshaping the drone industry for years. Today, The New York Times published an investigation that exposes the identical playbook being used against volunteer fire departments, and the parallels are impossible to ignore. The pattern is now undeniable: Wall Street investors are systematically targeting…

This week, the drone company crossed a threshold that transforms drone warfare from concept to operational reality. For the first time ever, FPV and fixed-wing drones from three different manufacturers flew, coordinated, and struck targets together as a single unified…
We’re living in a strange paradox: the U.S. is willing to sell China the “brains” that power advanced AI systems (because it pays), while blocking Chinese-made “eyes” like DJI camera drones under the banner of security and human rights. Different agencies, different laws – sure. But if the standard is credible, evidenced risk, it should…
