  1. I felt like 75% of my missions in the infantry could have been accomplished with a $300 Walmart quadcopter.

  2.  @fyaworx  I don't think so. Manpower is more expensive than drones. I think it comes down to the slow and inefficient procurement process. 5 years from now, drones will be integrsted into every combat arms branch

  4.  @fyaworx  Everyone's does. We have the raven but that's at company level and fixed wing. What we really need is tiny helicopters like the black hornet and a larger quad copter with extended range. That would change recon big time

  5. The Marine recruiters next to us were all POGs, one would tell kids "war stories" about killing Hajis in his time as a bulldozer operator. Another marine recruiter wrote emo poetry on Facebook daily. It was too easy to poach their recruits.

  6.  @thedoge9590  Yeah, they're coming, but they're not down to the platoon level yet. Within 5 years, they'll be integrated fully. The army seems to be focusing on having the FST team carry them for the platoon. That'll allow platoon level ISR and the ability to ID targets for precise indirect shots or to spot shots for the Gutav.
