One of the most shocking things about the Dubai Air Show was the drones . Drones everywhere . Drones in every individual booth , dawdler on the runway , drones in my coffee berry . Everyone want a drone , for surveillance , spying on their neighboring country , starting a state of war , help oneself soldier or to take it out for drink . The fact is that automated aircraft are the young cant in air power :
With lighter , stronger materials and sophisticated electronic components usable at cheap damage , even aficionado can progress these glorified model woodworking plane . At the show , not only Lockheed Martin , Boeing , Northrop Grumman or BAE had these machines useable . modest company offered them as well .
Granted , all of these drones are n’t equally smart , but whereas they are fully automatise , semi - machine-controlled or remote controlled , these aircraft are taking a center character in the field . foot soldiers hold and apply them as reconnaissance tools , while the bigger , more lethal models like the Predator or the Reaper can actually give breeze documentation to earth troops . And in peace time , they furnish with an advance , modest - price surveillance method acting for police forces .
Scary idea ? It is . I need one .
