- Comparison Of The Value Of Attack And Reconnaissance Capabilities Of Unmanned Aircraft Systems Versus Manned Aircraft For Army Commanders And Intelligence Officers by Joseph D. Sage Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University 2010 -- Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) have revolutionized intelligence, attack and reconnaissance operations on the modern battlefield for the U.S. Army. However, the debate continues as to whether manned or unmanned aircraft can best serve the requirements of commanders and intelligence officers. Although the utilization of UAS is not new, their applications have been refined over the past nine years, during Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. This research; derived from the viewpoints and experiences of commanders, pilots and intelligence officers, validate that combining the strengths of UAS and manned aircraft can produce an exceptional force multiplying asset that will enable commanders and intelligence officers with an improved ability to make decisions, plan, limit risks and better protect the force while establishing dominance on the battlefield.
