About the Book: Drones Redefined: The Impact of Emerging Technologies on UAS
Warfare
Drones Redefined: The Impact of Emerging Technologies on UAS Warfare is an
attempt by the Centre for Aerospace Power and Strategic Studies (CAPSS) to
provide a structured and forward-looking analysis of Unmanned Aerial Systems
(UAS) warfare, progressing from foundational transformations to disruptive
future trajectories. Section I, "Cruising High, " maps the evolution of UAS from
remotely piloted platforms to increasingly autonomous combat systems. It
analyses how stealth technologies, artificial intelligence, and electronic
warfare are reshaping survivability, decision-making speed, and tactical
flexibility. Dedicated chapters assess swarm intelligence, autonomous
operations, hypersonic integration, and cyber warfare, highlighting how these
domains compress
