Texas is getting its own airport exclusively for drones

It’s no secret that the US military is in L-O-V-E, love with its unmanned aerial fleet. The infatuation has reached fever pitch, in fact, now that the Army has begun construction of a brand new airport in central Texas that will only be accessible to its two favorite flying drones. The military has made it clear that UAVs are the future of aerial reconnaissance, as well as aerial combat, in a growing number of cases, and that they’ll eventually be operating in the same airspace as conventionally piloted aircraft.
