Unleashing American Drone Dominance

The order directs federal agencies to expedite the integration of drones, or Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), into the National Airspace System, scale up domestic production, and promote the export of American-made drone technologies. The Secretary of Transportation, through the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), is tasked with issuing rules and guidelines for routine Beyond Visual Line of Sight operations, implementing artificial intelligence tools to expedite UAS waiver applications, and publishing an updated roadmap for UAS integration. The aim is to strengthen the domestic drone sector and reduce reliance on foreign sources.
