    U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground (YPG) provided the ideal backdrop for the week-long C-sUAS demonstration held in April and focused on the most cutting edge drone-busting technology in a low collateral effects interceptor assessment. In January, the Joint C-sUAS Office (JCO) and the Army’s Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office (RCCTO) solicited information from private industry, and received multiple white papers in response.

    The demonstration drew high-level visitors, including U.S. Senator Gary Peters, who represents Michigan and sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC).

    “I’m impressed with Yuma Proving Ground,” he said. “This facility is amazing. It’s clear this is not something you could ever replicate: it is a security asset for the whole country.”
