Inside the US Army's Pacific war prep, from unfamiliar aircraft landings to drone warfare
Story by cpanella@businessinsider.com (Chris Panella) • 1d

The US Army is training with the Philippines on new tech, weapons, and tactics.

That includes flying and landing aircraft in unfamiliar locations in varying western Pacific weather.

Keeping troops alive in the environment and giving them the latest drones is also key.

Out in the islands of the western Pacific, the US Army and a strategic ally are landing aircraft in places they don't know, testing new drones and sensors, and trying to keep soldiers hidden in the electromagnetic spectrum.
 
The training is focused on adapting to the quickening pace of innovation on the battlefield, a general told Business Insider.
