Interesting article here on present and future pilot less military flying drones.The Raptor sounds like a right nasty beast.The bombs ect they can carry and deploy sound nasty as well.

Ha,ha, well that's honesty for you.I think he meant the terminators depicted in the film Terminator but does suggest that these drones will evolve into highly advanced machines.

I have no doubt we will get amazingly advanced drones, similar to the ones depicted in the Terminator films. What I do disagree with in that article is that I believe there will never be a fully automated one, used for killing people or destroying targets, without any form of human control.

Fair point and respected, but as you probably know me by now i will keep an open mind on this possibility , each to his own eh.Cheers for the reply. Link to post Share on other sites
