Drone Warfare in the War on Terror
In fifteen years, drones have evolved from a surveillance tool into a widely used and lethal weapon in the war on terror. We will discuss the technology (past, present and future), along with the tactics, politics and controversy. Topics will include: early unmanned aircraft, the Predator and Reaper, drone capacity and armaments, military/intelligence operations, surveillance and offensive capacity, targeting, books, and movies. Finally, we will ask the question whether drone attacks encourage more terrorism. Instructor: Thomas Eastwood
