flag U.S. forces used Anduril’s AI-powered Fly-Away Kit to intercept a drone over a military base in February 2026, marking a major success in countering growing drone threats.

flag In early February 2026, during Operation Epic Fury, U.S. forces used Anduril’s Fly-Away Kit (FAK) to successfully intercept a drone threat over a secure U.S. installation. flag The system, operated by 11 soldiers, combined AI-powered sensors and the Anvil drone interceptor to detect and neutralize small unmanned aircraft. flag U.S. Northern Command confirmed the FAK’s effectiveness amid a rising number of drone intrusions at military bases, with about 25% now being defeated—up from nearly none a year prior. flag The Defense Department’s Joint Interagency Task Force 401 confirmed ongoing efforts to protect critical infrastructure. flag A zero-tolerance policy for unauthorized drone flights in restricted airspace is now enforced, with penalties including fines over $100,000 and imprisonment. flag Additional FAK units are expected by late spring.
