Yeh, but further reading on UAVs and UCAVs shows that there must be a human operator in the loop in order to ensure that only combatants etc were targetted. The drones aren't able to fire themselves, an operator must make them weapons-free.

If they're jammed, then no permission to open fire, target gets away, wasted mission..
