In a startling testimony before the House Armed Services Committee on June 5, Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll admitted that the United States is “not doing enough” to counter rising drone threats from enemy states. His remarks followed recent Ukrainian drone strikes deep inside Russian territory, which have heightened concerns about U.S. readiness against similar attacks. Driscoll’s statement underscored growing vulnerabilities in national defense, prompting urgent calls from lawmakers for increased investment in counter-drone technologies and stronger homeland security measures.
