As was the case at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia last December, foreign adversaries are flying drones over sensitive U.S. military bases and into military training areas to spy on U.S. forces. China is the chief culprit here. Beijing’s intent was to learn and anticipate how U.S. forces would fight and how, in turn, those forces might more easily be defeated in war.

Considering the growing risk of a U.S. war with China over the Philippines or Taiwan and Russia’s continued threat to NATO, it is intolerable that our enemies are so easily penetrating our airspace with effective impunity.
