The Pentagon releases a new 100-page handbook focused on countering unmanned aerial systems, according to multiple Military Times outlets. The document is presented as a combined field manual and educational reference, drawing on both practical guidance and historical context. Sources describe the handbook as covering not only how forces should address drone threats, but also the underlying approach to modern counter-drone operations. One outlet characterizes the guide as part “field manual,” part “history lesson,” and part “philosophy of modern warfare,” emphasizing that it is intended to inform day-to-day tactics as well as broader thinking about how drone-enabled conflicts are conducted. While the provided excerpts do not detail specific recommendations, systems, or procedures, they consistently describe the same overall format and purpose: a consolidated, portable reference intended to guide efforts across military operations when facing drone activity. The handbook’s release indicates the Pentagon is formalizing counter-drone doctrine and education in a single reference document for use by service members.
