New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced that the federal government will send “a state-of-the-art drone detection system” to her state after a number of drone sightings across New York and New Jersey in recent days.

Although she did not elaborate on the system that will be deployed, it “will support state and federal law enforcement in their investigations,” she said in a statement on the morning of Dec. 15.
