Comment Re:Another Benefit of Traditional Planes (Score 1) 419

Having personally had several different types of unmanned drones fly in support of me in Iraq, I have to say a few things for the record. 1) They are not silent, and people start to hide as soon as they hear it. 2) The most useful thing on them is the camera, not the missile; their ability to sit over a target for long period of times and provide full-motion video to the ground commander (me) is invaluable, because it means less surprises. These things are primarily surveillance assets, the whole hellfire missile thing is just a nice addition.
