| #3 As far as ordinary flying goes, this is all well and good. But it is when mechanical failure or damage happen that humans are critical to UAV survivability. Humans are also very important for mission critical times during flight. You don't want a UAV popping a target that later turns out to be a friendly with their IFF malfunctioning. |

| #1 " But the navy is experimenting with replacing some of their naval reconnaissance aircraft (P-3s) with larger UAVs like the air force Global Hawk." The Global Hawks will start demanding per diem. |
