Military Drones: Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) (Military Vehicles)

Description:

Organized by nationality, Military Drones offers a compact guide to the main unmanned aerial vehicles being flown in combat zones today.
 
Over the last 20 years, the role of unmanned aircraft systems in modern warfare has grown at an unprecedented rate. No longer simply used for intelligence, data collection, or reconnaissance, drones are routinely used for target acquisition and to strike enemy targets with missiles and bombs.
Military Drones provides a detailed insight into the specialist military unmanned aerial vehicles that play a key role in the modern battle space. These include classics, such as the MQ-1 Predator, primarily used for intelligence gathering; the Black Hornet Nano, a micro UAV that is so small it can fit in the palm of your hand and is used by ground troops for local situational awareness; the Chinese tri-copter Scorpion, which is ideal for the stationary observation and strike role in a built-up area; and the French EADS Talarion, a twinjet long-endurance UAV designed for high-altitude surveillance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grandson loves it

J. · March 11, 2025

I bought this for my grandson, who's into military planes. He was thrilled with it, full of information without so much technical detail the average person would get lost.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very informative.

W. · October 25, 2024

I like autonomous vehicles. Whether it is ground,air and sea.

2.0 out of 5 stars Barebones with very little in the way of technical specifications.

K.D. · August 24, 2023

Limited in scope with cursory information that can be readily obtained via a quick google search. Most of the ordnance carried isn’t even named,just listed as “laser guided bombs”,”missiles”,”munitions”,etc. It’s fine as an introduction for younger readers but if you’re already knowledgeable on this topic then you can certainly do without. I highly recommend “Birds of Prey” and “Drone Strike!” both published by specialty press and authored by Bill Yenne for more detailed coverage.

Excellent book
