The proliferation of innovative unmanned technologies to improve productivity, bolster safety and create new business opportunities has accelerated over the past several years.  Unfortunately, these developments have also introduced new capabilities for adversaries.  During our panel we will explore the emerging issues associated with drones and unmanned systems from a military perspective, including spectrum, safety and solutions, and discuss how to best capture lessons learned in theater to protect our homeland.
