Operational Overview
An Unmanned air vehicle(UAV)can be defined as a recoverable uninhabited airframe that can be autonomous or remotely piloted (RPV) to perform a variety of military or civilian missions. Missiles are also autonomous or remotely controlled but are always intended to be destroyed with the target altogether. Sometimes referred as "drones" UAVs and RPVs gained notoriety through their extensive use in recent conflicts such Iraq and Afghanistan. Nevertheless, UAVs have been used in a variety of forms and missions since the 1918 "Kettering Bug".
This campaign will include operational and prototype UAVs and RPVs from 1918 to 2014 as longest the airframes have been actually build and flown.
