Când au fost inventate dronele și pentru ce? Istoria începe cu o armă din Primul Război Mondial • Newsweek România

Drones have a long military history, dating back to the 19th century, with significant developments during World War I and II. Initially used for training and reconnaissance, they evolved into armed platforms, notably during the Vietnam War and with the introduction of the RQ-1 Predator in the 1990s. The term 'drone' emerged from the British Queen Bee aircraft, used for artillery training. Today, drones are primarily recognized as weapons, especially highlighted by their use in the Ukraine conflict.
