AdvertisementAdvertisementThe US Army is aiming to "unman unmanned" aircraft operations, as one of its top generals likes to say, and that process involves developing the ability to fly drones easily from more places with fewer people in the mix.

But even with the move toward this future for Army drones, there's potentially still opportunities for older models to serve a purpose.
