US Launches Multinational Multi-Domain Attack Drone Task Force in Middle East
The US Central Command has launched Task Force Falcon Strike, the first multinational, multi-domain attack drone task force in the Middle East. This initiative builds on the earlier Task Force Scorpion Strike and aims to integrate one-way attack drones operating above, on, and below the sea, involving US forces and regional partners. While Gulf allies have been consulted, their participation has not been confirmed. The task force seeks to enhance drone capabilities amid ongoing regional tensions and losses of US drones in the conflict with Iran.
