I could put something up here every day about drones right now, if I had the time. But here's Spencer Ackerman's Danger Room post about research into a new form of drone that bridges communication systems between ships and aircraft.
TERN is way too benign sounding a name for what is really a Tactically Exploitive Reconnaisance Node, in my opinion. But the thing that really surprised me in this article was the fact that Navy ships and Airforce planes don't have a common communications architecture? What?
As Ackerman says, "If you can't talk to each other, you can't fight together."
