Mysterious Drones Near US Military Bases Raise Security Concerns 
Brett Velicovich, an American drone expert and former US Army intelligence and special operations soldier, told Fox News, 
"What concerns me most is the behavior of these drones. 
They are not hobbyist drones. 
Reports indicate they entered and exited base perimeters in ways designed to avoid detection as if testing response protocols." 
He also pointed to the risk, saying a drone swarm that costs less than a pickup truck can shut down a strategic airbase. 
For years, Chinese companies like Hikvision and Dahua supplied surveillance cameras across the US. 
They were often advertised and sold as security tools, but officials warned those systems had serious vulnerabilities. 
Some were even described as backdoors capable of exposing sensitive data. 
After the US restricted their use, especially on military ground, the problem didn't end there. 
In recent years, unauthorized drone activity around the US military bases have been steadily increasing. 
And incidents last month at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana and Fort McNair in DC have resulted in high-level security responses. 
Experts say the timing is notable. 
The rise in drone incursions followed the crackdown on Chinese surveillance cameras. 
Modern drones are inexpensive, widely accessible, and able to carry out sophisticated surveillance missions. 
In some cases, officials report multiple drones operating together in coordinated swarms, creating major challenges. 
They are difficult to track, harder to stop, and can slip past general defense systems. 
National security analysts warn the trend could signal Chinese surveillance or expose serious gaps in US defenses. 
As drone technology advances, officials say the US needs stronger rules and faster defenses before the threat grows.
