Pentagon Demonstrates 'Swarming' of Micro Drones
The exercise at Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake in October was one of the largest thus far using teams of small autonomous drones.

The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) said it conducted one of the largest demonstrations of “swarming” micro drones in October at Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake in California. The Pentagon announced the demonstration on January 9, the day after it was featured on the CBS news program 60 Minutes, which was granted exclusive access to the test.
