    These are very different drones. The drones youre thinking of have pilots. They also minimize casualties - civilian an non - so you’re not really mad at the drones, but of the policy behind their use. Specifically, when air strikes can and cannot be authorized.

      So now you acknowledge that third type of person lol. And that’s the thing about new drones, it’s not great that they can authorize themselves lol.

        I very strongly disagree with this statement. I believe a drone “controller” attached to every unit is a fantastic idea, and that drones having a minimal capability to engage hostile enemies without direction is going to be hugely impactful.

          Oh yes it’ll be impactful, I don’t think anyone can argue that. Horrifyingly so.

            I don’t think it’s horrifying to have my nation’s army better able to compete on a battlefield.
