In 1982, Israel's very successful use of unmanned air vehicles to provide battlefield reconnaissance started an upsurge in the potential inherent in these systems. The author traces the history of unmanned systems in the tactical environment and relates the environmental and technological changes that now make these systems a viable complement to manned air vehicles. This background lays the foundation for a review of current and planned systems and potential missions these unmanned air vehicles can successfully accomplish now and in the future. A summary of concerns and potential problems completes the study. Keywords: Remotely piloted vehicles, Tactical warfare.
