The US is significantly behind Russia and China in producing military drones, particularly cheap, expendable ones. While the Pentagon buys drones in the thousands, Russia and China produce them in the millions. American manufacturers face challenges due to supply chain issues, rapidly evolving battlefield requirements, and the Pentagon's procurement system, which is more accustomed to expensive, complex weapons. The US is attempting to catch up through initiatives like the 'Drone Dominance' program, aiming to acquire around 250,000 drones by 2027.
