It's not like UAVs are completely autonomous, they're manned by a sizeable ground crew. There is still an operator behind the controls, it's just that instead of looking out the cockpit he has all those cameras.
One of the best selling points is that if you lose a UAV, be deal, send up another. If you lose an pilot you've lost out on years of training.

thats a good way to look at it, espeacially because people are so sick and tired of deaths overseas... but on the contrary.. how many pilots have we lost since the gulf war??

The potential for casualties is still there though.
For hurricane hunters, sending an unmanned drone is way more efficient and safer than sending a full crew inside a C-130.
UAVs are able to stay up longer than humans for survelliance work, as well as pull G's no human pilot could handle.

I'm looking for a few 1.13 changes to keep the game at least interesting for awhile as well.
