FORT DRUM, N.Y. (WWNY) - Fort Drum is looking to expand on its drone capabilities. On Wednesday, the post took its first step toward making more room.
Fort Drum boasts many large and powerful aircraft, but it’s the smaller ones that officials say are the way of the future.
They’re unmanned drones, flown remotely into battle.
To continue investing in this modern technology, Fort Drum is building a new hangar to expand its fleet. Officials broke ground Wednesday morning.
