On the grounds at a Canadian test site for drone-killing tech

Description

What does it take to take down a drone? That's what the Canadian Armed Forces is looking to find out at the Counter Uncrewed Aerial Systems Sandbox 2026. It's a testing ground in Suffield, Alta., run by Canada's Department of National Defence where competing companies can show off their latest in drone detection and drone destruction tech, with the winner taking home $1.75 million in monetary prizes for promising technologies. The CBC's Evan Dyer spoke with organizers and competitors to see if what's demoed in Alberta can be applied in current and future wars abroad. #military #technology #caf #explainer #drones »»» Subscribe to CBC News to watch more videos: http://bit.ly/1RreYWS For breaking news, video, audio and in-depth coverage: https://www.cbc.ca/news Follow CBC News on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cbcnews Subscribe to CBC News on Snapchat: https://bit.ly/3leaWsr Subscribe to CBC News on WhatsApp: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb6MSjH9Bb63S9tbQa1Y Download the CBC News app for iOS: http://apple.co/25mpsUz Download the CBC News app for Android: http://bit.ly/1XxuozZ »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» For more than 80 years, CBC News has been the source Canadians turn to, to keep them informed about their communities, their country and their world.
