So I would say no, they are not a thing of the past.Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Jun 5 at 2014 1:34 PM2014-06-05T13:34:47-04:002014-06-05T13:34:47-04:00MSG Wade Huffman144478<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I believe UAVs will definitely continue to grow in an augmentation role for aerial combat, but I don't see them replacing fighters or bombers in the near future.Response by MSG Wade Huffman made Jun 5 at 2014 2:24 PM2014-06-05T14:24:39-04:002014-06-05T14:24:39-04:00SFC Michael Hasbun144480<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>When the technology advances enough? Yes. Right now? Not so much. The capabilities aren't quite there yet.Response by SFC Michael Hasbun made Jun 5 at 2014 2:26 PM2014-06-05T14:26:40-04:002014-06-05T14:26:40-04:002014-06-05T13:26:31-04:00
