Trump’s new drone orders aim to counter threats while encouraging flying cars and supersonic flights
- President Donald Trump signed three executive orders on Friday to counter drone threats and promote faster-than-sound flight and flying cars in the U.S.
- The orders respond to rising national security concerns highlighted by over 350 drone sightings near 100 U.S. Military sites and drone use in conflicts like Ukraine.
- The directives require the FAA to restrict drone flights over sensitive sites, improve law enforcement on illegal drones, and speed up regulations enabling beyond-line-of-sight drone operations.
- One order instructs the FAA to replace the 1973 ban on supersonic flights over land with a noise standard to advance commercial supersonic and flying car technologies.
- These measures aim to strengthen U.S. Drone defenses, expand innovative aviation, and reduce dependence on foreign drone manufacturers amid growing threats to national security.
