The #BruteCast

On October 1st, 2022 we published a #BruteCast with COL Bill Edwards, USA(Ret) where we discussed the use of small UAS in a kinetic role. Nearly 18 months later we've seen a massive proliferation of these weapons while watching the war in Ukraine their their 'eyes'. The use of drones in combination with cruise missiles is also on the rise in the Red Sea at the time of recording.

The website mentioned by COL Edwards is linked here:www.phoenix6consulting.com

There will find additional information about COL Edwards as well as for the courses he mentions at the end of his presentation:

- Drone Vulnerability and Assessment

- Drone Emergency Response Planning

- Counter Uncrewed Aerial Systems (CUAS) and Law
