Future theaters rich in bandwidth will have robust networks that can satisfy many logistics needs, and the Army should invest in connectivity to that network. In bandwidth-poor theaters, small UAS with direct, point-to-point connectivity may be an attractive option for providing critical situational awareness. « less
