| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) are the wonder
weapons of today's wars. UCAVs have been credited with striking
the convoy carrying Moammar Qaddafi; killing al Qaeda's Abu
Yahya al Libi and Anwar al Awlaki; eviscerating the Taliban's ranks and
other militants in the Afghanistan and Pakistan (AfPak) theater; and hitting
targets from Asia to Africa-all without putting pilots in harm's way. |
