Discussion: How Drones Change Everything
An MQ-9 Reaper unmanned aerial vehicle lands at Joint Base Balad, Iraq, Nov. 10. Reapers are remotely piloted and can linger over battlefields, providing persistent strike capabilities to ground force commanders. This Reaper is deployed to the 46th Expeditionary Reconnaissance and Attack Squadron from Creech Air Force Base, Nev. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Erik Gudmundson)
