Description

This book provides an update to the capabilities of unmanned systems since my two previous books entitled Unmanned Systems: Savior or Threat and The Importance and Vulnerabilities of U.S. Critical Infrastructure to Unmanned Systems and Cyber. Our world is undergoing a revolution in how we send and receive goods, conduct surveillance and launch attacks against our enemies, and reach out and explore our terrestrial neighbors and distant galaxies. It is akin to the introduction of fire to ancient mankind and automobiles at the turn of the nineteenth century. There is much that is being done and much more yet to be developed before we accept these new wonderous and simultaneously dangerous additions to our lives. By mating autonomous unmanned systems with artificial intelligence, we are taking a step closer to the creation of a "Skynet" entity.
