Soldiers from 1st Battalion The Rifles (1 RIFLES) have completed an experimental counter-UAS exercise designed to evaluate new tactics and training for defeating drone threats on the battlefield.
Conducted at the Sennybridge Training Area in Wales, the exercise tested a proposed Counter UAS Annual Combat Marksmanship Test (ACMT), which combines electronic warfare and live-fire engagements to prepare infantry soldiers to detect, track and defeat hostile drones.
