美国广播公司新闻频道(ABC News)查阅的一份机密内部简报文件显示，本月早些时候，一架无人机在美国空军最大、最具战略意义的机场之一短暂拉响警报，比最初报道的范围更广，潜在危险也更大。
路易斯安那州的巴克斯代尔空军基地表示，在“一份无人驾驶航空系统在该设施上空运行的报告”后，该基地于3月9日收到了就地避难的命令
这一发现引起了人们的关注，因为巴克斯代尔拥有远程B-52轰炸机，并在空军核防御能力的指挥和控制中发挥着关键作用。
当天晚些时候，就地避难的命令被取消，但未经授权的无人机飞行持续了近一周。
“巴克斯代尔空军基地在3月9日的一周内检测到多架未经授权的无人机在我们的领空活动，”第二轰炸联队的亨特·里宁格上尉在提供给美国广播公司新闻的一份声明中说。此前没有报道过其他无人机入侵事件。
根据3月15日的机密简报文件，无人机一波一波地出现，进出基地的方式可能表明试图“避免操作员被定位”无人机上的灯表明，操作员“可能正在测试基地的安全响应”。
“在2026年3月9日至15日期间，BAFB安全部队观察到多波12-15架无人机在该设施的敏感区域上空运行，包括飞行路线，飞机显示出非商业信号特征，远程控制链路和抗干扰能力，”该文件称。"在到达整个基地的多个点后，无人机分散在基地的敏感位置."
根据文件，3月13日和14日没有探测到无人机活动，也不清楚此后是否有活动。
这些飞行每天持续约四个小时，无人机使用不同的进入路线，并在受限空域内故意机动。
美国广播公司新闻撰稿人、前副助理国防部长米克·马尔罗伊(Mick Mulroy)说:“当然，似乎不仅仅是普通的无人机爱好者做得太过火了。”“看起来这是故意的，是为了看看他们会有什么反应。”
该简报包括确定无人机不同于一般消费者可以购买的现成产品。它们似乎是定制的，需要信号操作的“高级知识”。
分析师们表示，“非常有信心”他们预计未经授权的无人机将在不久的将来继续在巴克斯代尔空军基地及其周围活动。
“无人机入侵BAFB对公共安全和国家安全构成了重大威胁，因为它们要求关闭航线，同时也将该地区已经在飞行的有人驾驶飞机置于危险之中，”文件称。
联邦航空局将美国广播公司新闻提交给军方进行评论。路易斯安那州警方也在协助调查，拒绝置评。
“在军事设施上空飞行无人机不仅是一个安全问题，根据联邦法律，这是一种刑事犯罪。我们正与联邦和地方执法机构密切合作，调查这些入侵事件。我们设施的安全和我们人员的安全是重中之重，我们将继续警惕地监控我们的领空，”Rininger上尉的声明说。
'Multiple waves' of unauthorized drones recently spotted over strategic US Air Force base
A drone sighting that temporarily raised alarms at one of the United States Air Force’s largest and most strategic airfields earlier this month was more extensive, and potentially more dangerous, than first reported, according to a confidential internal briefing document reviewed by ABC News.
Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana said it was under a shelter-in-place order March 9 after “a report of an unmanned aerial system operating over the installation.”
The sighting raised concerns because Barksdale houses long-range B-52 bombers and plays a critical role in command and control of the Air Force nuclear defense capabilities.
The shelter-in-place order was lifted later that day but the unauthorized drone flights continued for nearly a week.
“Barksdale Air Force Base detected multiple unauthorized drones operating in our airspace during the week of March 9th,” Capt. Hunter Rininger of the 2nd Bomb Wing said in a statement provided to ABC News. The additional drone incursions had not been previously reported.
According to the confidential briefing document dated March 15, the drones came in waves and entered and exited the base in a way that may suggest attempts to “avoid the operator(s) being located.” Lights on the drones suggested the operators “may be testing security responses” at the base.
“Between March 9-15, 2026, BAFB Security Forces observed multiple waves of 12-15 drones operating over sensitive areas of the installation, including the flight line, with aircraft displaying non-commercial signal characteristics, long-range control links and resistance to jamming,” the document said. “After reaching multiple points across the installation, the drones dispersed across sensitive locations on the base.”
According to the document there was no drone activity detected on March 13 and 14 and it’s not clear if there has been activity since.
The flights lasted around four hours each day and the drones used varied routes of ingress and deliberate maneuvering within restricted airspace.
“Certainly, it seemed to be more than just your average drone enthusiast who just pushed it too far,” said ABC News contributor Mick Mulroy, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense. “It looked like this was deliberate and intentional to see just how they would react.”
The briefing includes a determination that the drones were different than what the typical consumer could purchase off the shelf. They appeared to be custom built and required “advanced knowledge” of signal operations.
The analysts said “with high confidence” they expected unauthorized drones to continue to operate in and around Barksdale Air Force Base in the immediate future.
“The drone incursions at BAFB pose a significant threat to public safety and national security since they require the flight line to be shut down while also putting manned aircrafts already inflight in the area at risk,” the document said.
The FAA referred ABC News to the military for comment. The Louisiana State Police, which is also assisting the investigation, declined to comment.
“Flying a drone over a military installation is not only a safety issue, it is a criminal offense under federal law. We are working closely with federal and local law enforcement agencies to investigate these incursions. The security of our installation and the safety of our people are top priorities, and we will continue to vigilantly monitor our airspace,” Capt. Rininger’s statement said.
