I said that? I don't think so.. I said this. Message 27852078 I fully understand that surveillance drones are analyst intensive, which means more money. But my point was that actually flying the aircraft is substantially cheaper than a manned fixed wing surveillance asset. Drones can loiter far longer on target, and the amount of information they can collect requires substantially more manpower to analyze. That said, I would rather avoid exposing a human pilot to hostile fire any day. And it's not just video surveillance we're talking about. there's SIGINT and MASINT to analyze. It's also a problem with the human intelligence side.. We have just not had the analytical assets available to keep up with the influx of information. Analysts, by their nature, are not cheap. Hawk
