: During the most recent rounds of Base Closure and Realignment Commission activities in 2005, a significant number of training bases were closed. In light of the introduction of new technologies and the great expansion of unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) in the force, Department of Defense planners and some in Congress have become concerned that the existing training infrastructure bases and their training support facilities may not be adequate to train UAS air and ground components and the ground forces that use such equipment to capitalize fully on their capabilities. Accordingly, the Deputy Director, Readiness and Training Policy and Programs in the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (OUSD [P&R]) asked the RAND Corporation to assess the adequacy of UAS training to support current and future requirements. In addition, the House Armed Services Committee report accompanying the Fiscal Year 2013 National Defense Appropriations Act raised a number of...

In the past century, aviation has been one of the biggest technological advances that changed people’s lives. Especially in recent years in addition to being used in passenger transportation and war technologies, unmanned aerial vehicles have been carrying out important activities in many parts of life. These devices, which can be used as an integrated camera and weapon systems that can be controlled wirelessly and have superior mobility, have become one of the most important actors in defence. In addition to security services, unmanned aerial vehicles are used in many activities such as agriculture, search and rescue, cartography and fire. Unmanned aerial vehicles are also frequently used by law enforcement agencies due to their size and mobility, especially in areas such as monitoring and tracking. Unmanned aerial vehicles are used in many security needs such as traffic inspections, monitoring, social events and tracking around the world. Besides all these, unmanned aerial vehicle...

Predictions of widespread adoption of UAVs for every airpower task are overzealous. This article uses innovation theory to critically analyze the likely future of UAVs using a framework of expected benefits and costs of adoption across core air force missions: air superiority; intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR); rapid global mobility; global strike; and command and control (C2) (Rogers 2003, 233). While UAVs will certainly take on an expanded role in warfare, predictions of universal military adoption of UAVs are overzealous because they fail to incorporate the total costs associated with adoption of new technology for a large organization.
