Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Among the most distinctive features of US President Barack Obama's counterterrorism strategy has been his reliance on unmanned aerial vehicles-more commonly known as drones-to target terrorist operatives around the globe. The use of drones has rapidly expanded beyond the battlefields where US troops have openly engaged in conflict, such as Afghanistan and Iraq, to a range of undeclared combat zones, including Pakistan, Yemen, and Somalia. According to an official estimate, the US military launched in 1,160 drone strikes in Afghanistan alone between 2009 and 2012.

Rise of drones: an international policy on the use of tactical UAVs is necessary to prevent unwanted disputes   Journal Article
Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract The use of tactical unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is increasing with growing threat perceptions. New UAVs are being used in operations and more advanced designs are on the drawing board. Although the Indian Air Force (IAF) uses several unmanned platforms for surveillance operations, it lacks the strength in tactical UAVs, especially when it comes to precision strike capabilities. For a long time, there was a proposal for the IAF to purchase Harop Loitering Munitions System from Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI). The proposal has been delayed for years now, and with the new government's dedication to speed up the slow pace of IAF modernisation, the procurement seems to be coming of age.
