True, when the aircraft was just a tool and it was the pilot's experience and skill that mattered.

![]() $#@%^ #$#$% @#&$@%!!! Suck all the life out of wanting to fly combat aircraft. Christ. Clear back into the late eighties they started screwing us with these damn drones. ![]() At least the trash haulers will have something to look forward to. Until someone figures out how to automate that, too. The ****ers. ![]()

I'd think it wouldn't be that hard to automate heavy lifting aircraft over routine routes for military. |

Some interesting tidbits for all the doubters of remote controlled A/A out there...
Video of a Dogfight between a Iraqi MiG and a USAF Predator armed with Stingers. Unfortunately the Predator lost. Quite possably the first Air to Air with an unmanned combat aircraft. The DASH drone a shipborne ASW heli-drone controlled by a station the size of a kitchen oven plus a radio and rated to carry either torpedoes or nuclear bombs... developed back in 1960... the DASH is still in service as a target drone. The SSM-N-8 Regulus a nuclear cruise missile capable of being remote flown by ship, submarine or fighter aircraft (yes fighter aircraft) and could even land to abort its mission. Developed in 1955! Do I need to mention the TACTOM and SLAM-ER, with their man-in-the-loop control system? Quote:
