This course contains the use of artificial intelligence
This course has been made in partnership with William Brown, a highly experienced, operationally proven drone pilot and tactical instructor with over a decade of service in the British Army’s elite airborne and special operations community.
William has a distinguished background that includes multiple operational tours in high-threat environments, during which he served as a lead UAV/Drone Operator, ISR specialist, Team Leader, and Second-in-Command.

He completed the British military’s most current and comprehensive drone operator courses as recently as March 2025 and remains one of the most current and capable pilots in the drone industry.
