Ukraine’s shock drone strike on Russia’s strategic bomber fleet this week has generals and analysts taking a new look at threats to high-value United States aircraft at bases in the homeland and abroad – and the situation is worrisome.

Russia launched an intense missile and drone barrage at the Ukrainian capital Kyiv in the early hours of Friday, killing at least six people, Ukrainian officials said, as powerful explosions reverberated across the country.

Ukraine‘s surprise drone attack targeting dozens of Russian aircraft last week was a wake-up call for the Defense and Homeland Security departments to the emerging threats that unmanned aerial vehicles can pose domestically.
