In the future both our own armies and the enemies armies will have unmanned aerial vehicles in the battle space and this means that no one on the ground will be safe from being undetected. This will level the playing field for combat troops and make a tough to beat your opponent.

Eventually unmanned aerial vehicles will need to be able to shoot down other unmanned aerial vehicles so perhaps we will have a bunch of model aircraft flying around trying to shoot each other and do dogfights. As these unmanned aerial vehicles get smaller and smaller down to the size of insects you can imagine how things will change.

Since we know of this potential eventuality we must design future unmanned aerial vehicles with magnets to collect the enemys tiny robotic insect like micro-air vehicles. Although this sounds rather science-fiction like it is not, because we know from the computer age that as time progresses such systems get smaller and more robust in their processing abilities. All of this is known fact and thus this will be coming together in human warfare.

Therefore we must be thinking in advance and figure out how we're going to deal with the enemy that is using the same UAVs that we in fact originally created. In other words if there is no way to shoot down a small UAV that means you cannot shoot down your enemies UAVs either, just like they cannot shoot down yours. We must think ahead for our future fighting force and deal with this issue consider this in 2006.
