Drone Incident Response Training & Equipment

Preparing military, law enforcement, and security personnel to safely respond to grounded, crashed, or weaponized drones.

When drones crash, are abandoned, deliver contraband, or are intentionally weaponized, personnel must respond safely and decisively.

Who We Serve

Critical infrastructure security protecting industrial facility from drone threats

Law Enforcement

Corrections officer observing prison facility for contraband delivery drones

Bomb Squads / EOD

Military personnel training to respond to grounded unmanned aircraft system hazards

Corrections

Event security personnel monitoring drone threat at large public gathering

Military

Event & Stadium Security

Personnel across government and private security sectors are increasingly encountering drones during routine operations. Proper response training ensures these incidents are handled safely.

When Drones Are Found on the Ground

Detection and Counter-UAS technologies are only part of the solution. When a drone crashes, is abandoned, or delivers a payload, personnel must respond safely while managing potential hazards and preserving evidence.

Drone Incident Response Training

38 Sierra’s Drone Incident Response Training prepares personnel to safely search for, assess, and manage grounded or crashed drones that may contain hazards or intelligence value.

Students learn to:

• Identify hazards associated with unmanned aircraft systems
• Safely approach grounded or crashed drones
• Assess potential explosive or hazardous payloads
• Manage drone incident scenes
• Preserve evidence and support technical exploitation

Why 38 Sierra

Doctrine-Informed Expertise

38 Sierra brings together experienced professionals from Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), Department of War, and Federal Law Enforcement. Members of our team contributed to the development of doctrine governing safe response to downed and weaponized Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS).

Instruction From National-Level Practitioners

Our training cadre includes experienced EOD operators, public safety professionals, and federal officials who helped develop the gold standard for unmanned system threat response and post-incident exploitation.

Operational UAS Incident Training

38 Sierra delivers experience-based Drone Incident Response Training grounded in real operational experience. Our instruction focuses on practical hazard recognition, safe response procedures, and structured reporting for grounded drones.

We provide operational knowledge that personnel can apply immediately in the field—not hypothetical theory.

Preparing Security Teams for Major Events

Large public events and critical infrastructure sites face increasing risks from malicious or unauthorized drones.

38 Sierra supports security teams responsible for protecting:

• Major sporting events
• International events (Olympics / FIFA World Cup)
• Stadiums and arenas
• Power plants and energy facilities
• Government facilities
• Transportation infrastructure
