MWI Podcast: Europe’s Airspace Violations and the Counterdrone Challenge
John Amble is joined on this episode of the MWI Podcast by Dr. Stacie Pettyjohn, a senior fellow and director of the Defense Program at the Center for a New American Security. From securing sovereign airspace to protecting maneuver formations on the battlefield, the counterdrone challenge is deeply complex—one that both the US joint force and the militaries of other NATO member states, particularly those Eastern European states most at risk from Russian drone operations, are grappling with. The discussion in this episode examines that challenge.
