War & military technology · Drones armados · Poder aéreo · Derecho de los conflictos armados · Mando y control
In the 2010s, armed remotely piloted aircraft became prominent in state operations and in debates over target selection, command chains, transparency, and the application of international law. The United Nations report stresses that remote control does not remove legal obligations. This entry does not assess particular campaigns or assume that a platform alone determines precision, legality, accountability, or strategic outcomes.
