For an entire week, multiple waves of 12 to 15 unauthorized drones flew over sensitive areas of Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana. Barksdale is home to the US Air Force Global Strike Command — the nerve center of America's nuclear bomber fleet.
ABC News reported that the Air Force was "not able to stop them." The drones flew in organized formations over restricted areas of the base, including areas near nuclear weapons storage facilities.
This follows the East Coast drone flurry of late 2024 that panicked New Jersey and surrounding states, and similar incidents at Langley Air Force Base. In each case, authorities claimed they could not identify the operators or the origin of the drones.
If the most powerful military in human history cannot stop consumer-grade drones from flying over its nuclear weapons bases for a week straight, either the military is incompetent — or these aren't ordinary drones.
