For fiscal year 2021, the funds provided to the MSU center by FEMA's Homeland Security National Training Program Continuing Training Grant total approximately $2 million and are intended to be used to develop training programs for the use of drones in disaster preparation and response. "The development of these UAS training programs will save lives in the coming years. Mississippi and other states in our region will face the inevitable storms and floods of the future with increased preparedness thanks in part to this program and the grants that make it possible," Guest said. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:57:00Z |
