Abstract
The UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) offers numerous benefits to the military. The benefits it can provide are to perform an operation without loss of life and economic life cycle cost. This clearly showed us the benefits of using UAVs in the operation, especially in politically hostile and sensitive areas. While the American military first used UAVs, it is Israel that has used them best in real situations. In this paper, it is summarized the types and the OPCONs (Operational Concept) of UAVs and the values. Looking at the technology trends, and it is showed the benefits of UAV in the economic side feasibility, to emphasis on the future values of the UAVs as a newly emerging weapon systems.
