There is R&D but it is slow. Why cant we make 2 or 3 secret teams that can do R&D with Yemeni Houtis, Iranians and other such groups ?
get all you can and not only build those things but improve them. Secondly PAC Kamras AVRID needs to create a new drone research dept to boost our drone tech.
Also collaboration with Turkey and China can help us boost it even further.
Not just drones but Land and Air based EW assets.
