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.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
