'Drones' or 'Smart' Unmanned Aerial Vehicles?

摘要

Mankind is at the cusp of a new revolution, a relatively silent 'robotic revolution' in modern warfare. These new robotic technologies, because of their sophistication and lethality, are changing the rules of warfare. How mankind further develops these technologies, while at the same time addressing the many legal and ethical implications, will remain a critical challenge for developers of these technologies and military planners alike, as well as for politicians and policy makers.
