Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (SUAS) have become indispensable assets for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), thanks to their unique capabilities that significantly enhance operational effectiveness. These systems occupy a critical operational niche, bridging the gap between fixed surveillance infrastructure and manned aircraft.
