Text: The Drone Handbook
02/04/2025

The war in Ukraine has shown for almost three years how drones can dominate a modern battlefield in many military fields. These relatively inexpensive flying weapons systems have become an indispensable component of modern and effective warfare. They enable deep penetration into enemy territory, targeting strategically important objectives, and ensuring real-time surveillance in a frontline area. The rapid development of new combat and reconnaissance drones has created an innovative industry within defense technology, capable of providing the military with the latest drone technologies in a short period of time. The long-underestimated striking power of affordable drone systems has long been misunderstood in many NATO countries, leading to a comprehensive reevaluation of these weapons systems, whose development steps are rapidly progressing. 

The present book titled „Drohnen – Systeme – Einsätze – Perspektiven: Die Zukunft der unbemannten militärischen Luftfahrt in Europa“, written by the renowned German defense technical editors Thomas Meuter and Stefan Nitschke, offers in-depth insights into modern drone warfare, its applications, and the military experiences gained. It sheds light on the diverse facets of unmanned aircraft and their influence on international security policy, European military, and warfare. Both authors emphasize, "that drone development in Europe had not previously had the importance it has had since the Ukraine war. A rethink is necessary among military procurers and ultimately among military users to quickly address this challenge at all levels, according to the two subject matter experts."
