A military drone, also known as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), is an aircraft that operates without a human pilot on board. These drones are equipped with various technologies, including cameras and sensors, allowing them to gather intelligence, conduct surveillance, and carry out targeted strikes. They can be remotely controlled or operate autonomously using pre-programmed flight paths. Military drones are used by armed forces around the world, including the United States and NATO countries, to enhance operational capabilities while minimizing risks to personnel. Their ability to fly at high altitudes and cover large areas makes them valuable for reconnaissance and combat missions.
