Tracking UAP—Skywatcher, "The Dogwhistle," Aerial Intertercept and 11 Classes of UAP
<p>Reed Summers speaks with former special operations leader and technologist James Fowler about the evolving landscape of air intelligence and airspace security and the 11 types of UAP detected. </p><br><p>Drawing on more than two decades of experience across advanced sensing systems, electronic warfare, and aviation technology, Fowler examines how drone proliferation, GPS vulnerability, and vision-based navigation are reshaping how airspace is monitored and protected worldwide. The discussion focuses on technical limitations, systemic blind spots, and why many legacy assumptions no longer hold in a complex, interconnected air environment.</p><br><p>This episode sets the foundation for understanding airspace security as a global challenge—one that cuts across defense, aviation, infrastructure, and emerging technology—rather than a narrow, nation-specific concern.</p><br><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
