Drone swarms: how massed autonomous UAS will reshape warfare, air-defence and civil aviation Coordinated drone swarms — networked, autonomous UAS operating en masse — are changing tactics, air-defence postures and civil-airspace management by enabling distributed sensing, electronic-warfare effects and low-cost strike options. Their rise forces militaries, regulators and industry to adapt doctrine, defenses and air-traffic safeguards.
