The flights lasted about four hours each day and the drones used different entry and maneuvering routes within the restricted airspace.
New details emerge on drone that shut down Louisiana Air Force base. A confidential tip has revealed that what was believed to be a single unauthorized drone was actually multiple illegal intrusions over Barksdale Air Force Base over nearly a week.
A drone sighting that temporarily raised the alarm at one of the United States Air Force's largest and most strategic airfields earlier this month was more extensive and dangerous than initially reported, according to a confidential internal document reviewed by ABC News.
Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana said it was under a shelter-in-place order on 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 the command and control of the Air Force's nuclear defense capabilities.
The nationwide lockdown was lifted later that day, but the unauthorized drone flights continued for nearly a week.
“Barksdale Air Force Base detected several unauthorized drones operating in our airspace during the week of March 9,” Capt. Hunter Rininger of the 2nd Bombardment Wing said in a statement to ABC News. The additional drone incursions had not been previously reported.
According to the confidential document dated March 15, the drones came in waves and flew in and out of the base in a manner that could suggest an attempt to “avoid detection of the operator(s). The lights on the drones suggested that 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 vehicles exhibiting non-commercial signal characteristics, long-range control links, and resistance to jamming,” the document said. “After arriving at multiple points throughout the installation, the drones dispersed to sensitive locations on the base.”
According to the document, no drone activity was detected on March 13 and 14, and it is not clear whether there has been any activity since then.
The flights lasted about four hours each day and the drones used different entry routes and deliberate maneuvering within the restricted airspace.
"It certainly seemed like it was more than just the average drone enthusiast going overboard with this issue. It seemed like it was intentional to see how they would react," said ABC News contributor Mick Mulroy, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense.
The briefing included an assessment that the drones were different from those a typical consumer might buy off the shelf. They appeared to be custom-built and required “advanced knowledge” of signal operations.
Analysts said with "high confidence" they expected unauthorized drones to continue operating in and around Barksdale Air Force Base for the foreseeable future.
"Drone incursions into BAFB pose a significant threat to public safety and national security, as they require the closure of the flight path, while also endangering manned aircraft already in the area," the document states.
The FAA referred ABC News to the military for comment. The Louisiana State Police, which is also assisting in the investigation, declined to comment.
“Flying a drone over a military installation is not only a safety issue, but is a criminal offense under federal law. We are working closely with federal and local law enforcement agencies to investigate these intrusions. The security of our installation and the safety of our people are top priorities, and we will continue to vigilantly monitor our airspace,” Captain Rininger said in a statement./ Adapted from "Pamphlet"
