We're going to have a bunch of drones here "testing" while Indiana gets poised to "unleash American drone dominance". I found out this unleashing is coming here, just a few miles down the road.

It's funny hearing that Indiana is so technologically advanced in manufacturing technology. But the words they're slingin' in this all sounds like they went down to the local comic book store and grabbed the kid with the most Majic the Gathering cards stacked up in front of him and told him to write up something cool.

"The Indiana Initiative for Drone Dominance Task Force" You almost need a cigarette and a nap just reading this 😅

I guess with the struggles in the RV industry it's time to come up with a new economic strategy; Drone Dominance!
I just hope they don't "staple" the drones together like they do the RV's. Them suckers be fallin out of the sky!

I think you figured something out here.
Gorilla Glue is over in Ohio, new pipeline going in to Indiana?

At least he is calling it what is is, National Security.

The entire "Space Race" of the 50's, 60's, and 70's was about spy stuff, but it was hidden behind a mission to go to the moon.

Drones make sense. They are small, light, unmaned, in expensive (till the Gov gets invovled) and that makes them expendable with no human life at risk. Ukraine was an awakening.

Outside of military applications, it will change the way the services do business. Think about a bad car crash or fire in rush hour. They could deploy a drone and get eyes on scene in 1/2 the time it takes a crew to get there. In a police stand off or active shooter, they can fly the drone to the location take a peek and asses the situation with no risk to humans.

Not a fan of seeing one in my back yard, but it does make sense.
 
It's been quite some time now that satellite cameras, from space, could clearly see things down at street level. So, what does it matter, really, that Big Brother wants flying cameras sputtering around the neighborhood.

Cause we can can't access the Iranian Big Brother Camera Network, nor can they see ours.
