Military drones (Paperback)

Paperback. Military Drones: Technology, Tactics, and the Future of Warfare "Military Drones" offers a clear, compelling exploration of the unmanned systems reshaping modern conflict. From reconnaissance quadcopters and loitering munitions to long-endurance combat UAVs, autonomous ground vehicles, and coordinated swarms, the book examines the technologies, missions, and strategic consequences of the drone era. Written for defense professionals, researchers, students, and informed readers, it connects technical foundations-sensors, communications, navigation, autonomy, electronic warfare, and counter-drone systems-with real operational challenges. It also considers the human, legal, ethical, and cybersecurity questions raised when increasingly capable machines operate alongside military forces. More than a catalogue of platforms, this book explains how drones are changing intelligence collection, targeting, logistics, force protection, and decision-making on the battlefield. It is an essential guide to understanding the systems that are redefining military power in the twenty-first century. This item is printed on demand.
