Drone Swarm Reportedly Flew Over Langley Air Force Base for 17 Straight Days
|Drones are now clearly the present and future of warfare:

U.S. military personnel reported drones appearing in restricted airspace over Langley Air Force Base in Hampton, Virginia, shortly after sunset during a period of more than two weeks, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The drones appeared in December last year, according to the report, pulling in officials across the Pentagon, FBI and the Defense Department’s specialized office for investigating unidentified aerial phenomena.
One senior official based at Langley told The Journal that multiple drones headed across Chesapeake Bay and further south toward the city of Norfolk. They reportedly traveled across Naval Station Norfolk, the world’s largest naval port and the main base for the Navy’s vaunted SEAL Team Six. Unless the drones are an imminent threat, by law they cannot by shot down near military bases.
You can read more at the link, but the drone provocations over Langley went on for 17 straight days and DOD could do nothing about it. These low cost drones if outfitted with munitions could have taken out all the over-priced F-22’s that were stationed at Langley.
Given Milley is on the CCP payroll, SpongeBrain and Cackles are oblivious, and no one remembers how Japan caught us napping in 1941, I say we just roll over and go back to sleep…
In other words, MacArthur had nearly his whole Air Force caught on the ground and destroyed on December 8, ten hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Because he made bad assumptions.

The sheer incompetence of the US military under the Harris/Biden admin is staggering.
Drones used to be covered under both the FAA and the department of commerce. Which made it problematic (legally) to shoot them down.
Which seems stupid over an air base but it was the case in 2018.
I’d assume it’s still that complicated if this is true.
