1/ FEMA's FY2027 Counter-UAS Grant Program closes Monday, Nov 16 at 5 PM ET. $250M goes to all 56 states and territories. Only State Administrative Agencies can apply, so police, fire and EMS requests need to reach your SAA this week. simpler.grants.gov/opportuni…

2/ Read the fine print. Detection systems bought with these funds must share detection data with DHS: tracks, Remote ID info, sensor metadata and alerts. Vendor agreements have to allow that access. Ask about it before you buy, not after. hlc.com/en/publications/coun…

3/ You can't respond to what you can't see. Last night Kaunas Airport in Lithuania suspended operations twice over contraband balloons and a suspected drone. Airspace awareness is a public safety issue now. lrt.lt/en/news-in-english/19…

Five federal departments signed an MOU Monday to speed C-UAS into U.S. airspace. The FAA will run fast safety reviews and can restrict airspace if a system puts other aircraft at risk.

That's the right instinct. DefenseScoop notes the deal comes amid a surge of unauthorized drones over U.S. bases and sites, including Fort McNair. You still can't deconflict, or decide how to respond, unless you can see what's in the air first.

Rooftop drone docks. BVLOS regs. Drone infrastructure is getting built, but there’s a missing piece. Security has to scale with drone traffic. The ground has security perimeters. Skies have ATC. The gap is in the low-altitude airspace.

Ground perimeter is secure. What about the low-altitude airspace? Drone activity is surging. In the 500 ft. between buildings and the clouds, there's zero visibility. Gargoyle Systems extends enterprise security to the skies over critical assets.

i think there's less than 18 months til we have the first AI-driven + autonomous drone coup. I'm surprised it hasn't happened already.
