The FBI has 17 working drones and only two pilots
The FBI may have drones, but according to a new report, it isn’t using them very often. The report comes from the Department of Justice’s Inspector General, which found that the FBI’s drone program is currently limited to just 17 working drones and two pilots. Most importantly, all of the drones operate out of a single location, severely limiting the range and response time of the program. As a result of the FBI’s centralized approach to UAS,” the report writes, “the single team of UAS pilots has needed to travel up to thousands of miles to support FBI investigations across the United States.”
