[00:00:00]Imagine preparing to build hundreds of thousands of military drones while relying on one country for the tiny magnets that power [music] almost all of them.

[00:00:08]That's the reality facing the US right now.

[00:00:11]China controls nearly all rare earth magnet production and those magnets are critical for drone motors, missile [music] systems, and advanced defense technology.

[00:00:22]So, while the Pentagon is rapidly scaling drone production, >> [music] >> the real battle may actually be the supply chain behind it.

[00:00:29]That's where companies like Real Alloys come in, building an American-made rare earth supply [music] chain designed to reduce dependence on China.

[00:00:37]Because the future of drone dominance isn't just about building drones, it's about controlling the technology [music] inside them.

[00:00:44]Read the full story on The Droning Company.

[00:00:47]US military drone production relies heavily on Chinese rare earth magnets.
