Washington, May 3 (RHC)-- The White House has announced a new policy aimed at expanding the sale of armed drones, particularly the large armed drones such as the Predator and the Reaper.

Trump’s trade adviser Peter Navarro said the policy change will allow U.S. weapons companies to increase their direct sales of armed drones to so-called authorized allies and partners.

This comes as a new report from the Security Assistance Monitor revealed that Trump approved an unprecedented $82 billion in arms sales during his first year in office.
