I was going to post this in the sUAS Forum, but its still locked:

QuoteThis training exercise marked the first time an Air Force installation has partnered with the local Civil Air Patrol to test counter UAS capabilities: a culmination of almost two years of preparation and coordination among several different agencies, including the FAA, Dover AFB and the Delaware Civil Air Patrol. Such partnerships ensured training was conducted lawfully and safely, while minimizing its impact on real-world flight operations.

During the course of the exercise, the Delaware CAP infiltrated the base using a commercial UAS, and the 436th SFS employed countermeasures to eliminate the threat. Under the supervision of exercise evaluators and the watchful eyes of the Delaware CAP members and wing leadership, members of the 436th SFS successfully located and intercepted the UAS.
