John Hoeven: “The legislative draft being worked on by Senators Hoeven and Blumenthal will ensure this to be the case.”

JIATF 401 was founded specifically to address this new threat and leads the effort to develop and deploy counter-drone technology across the entire Department of War.

Small drones have changed warfare, a fact we’ve seen clearly in Ukraine, the Middle East and even over our own military bases.

Between Project ATLAS, which we announced yesterday, and the MOU signed today, it is clear to anyone who wants to develop drone and counter-drone technology, North Dakota is the place to be.

I appreciate General Ross for recognizing the potential of this partnership and for working with me to make it a reality.
