A Very Brief History of UAVs

In our previous videos at Defence Central, we have extensively explored a variety of modern unmanned aerial vehicles, showcasing their growing significance in military operations worldwide. These remarkable aircraft, with their unique profiles and astonishing capabilities, appear as if they have emerged from the pages of a futuristic novel. Take, for instance, the renowned Predator and the diverse range of other operational UAVs currently in the US military arsenal.

But the origins of these platforms trace back far beyond our expectations. If you believed that military drones took flight only in the 1970s-1980s, prepare to be astounded by the reality.

In this video, we will explore the intriguing history of unmanned aerial vehicles. From their humble beginnings to their meteoric rise, we will uncover the milestones and innovations that have shaped this remarkable technology.

This is a very US-centric video, and completely ignores e.g. British developments of aerial and marine UAVs during ww1.
