US Army soldiers put drones to the test in the Pacific. They struggled in the heat.

At the Army's annual gathering in Washington, DC, this week, Command Sgt. Maj. Shaun Curry of the 25th Infantry Division said that some drone models tested elsewhere struggled soon after arriving in Hawaii. "When that equipment came to Hawaii, it was 100 degrees outside," with a lot of salt water in the air, Curry said. "Those drones did not last in those heat environments."
