Strategic Unmanned Systems Partnership Act

The Strategic Unmanned Systems Partnership Act establishes a joint working group between the United States and Ukraine to explore co-developing, co-producing, and acquiring specific low-cost, expendable unmanned systems. This group, co-chaired by senior U.S. defense officials and including Ukrainian military representatives, will analyze combat lessons from Ukraine to identify promising drone technologies and create frameworks for sharing data and intellectual property. The legislation mandates regular reports to Congress on progress, supply chain assessments, and potential legal barriers to accelerating the production and fielding of these systems in the U.S.
