U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Brandon Ardner, lethality branch unmanned aerial systems master trainer navigates while Pvt. 1st Class Ronald Commare, Avenger operator from 52d Air Defense Artillery Brigade, 10th Army Air and Missile Defense Command, pilots the counter-unmanned aerial system near Lipa, Poland, Nov. 8, 2025. The intensive 20-day multinational Train-the-Trainer course rapidly qualified 20 students from Poland, Romania, and the U.S., most with no prior military drone experience, in a battle-tested C-UAS system through classroom, practical flight, and night operations, culminating in a successful live-fire demonstration to destroy a jet powered drone, thereby accelerating the fielding of this critical capability along the Eastern Flank Deterrence Line. As the battlefield evolves, we are leveraging U.S. experience and NATO authorities to solve problems for the Alliance. The training occurring at Lipa shows how Allies like Poland and Romania are rapidly procuring and employing systems that are battle-tested in Ukraine to strengthen the Eastern Flank Deterrence Line. This is the EFDL in action.. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. 1st Class Jacob Kohrs, 10th AAMDC)
