Remote Control War 1x52

** Winner, Political Documentaries, 2011 Banff Non-Fiction Rockies **

The current campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan are the world’s first Robotic War, with over 7,000 robots in the air and 12,000 on the ground. Warfare has been revolutionized in a monumental shift. Mankind’s five thousand year monopoly on war is breaking down. Currently the West has the upper hand in technology, but a captured drone can be replicated in months. Very soon all sides will have access to remote control weapons. Will robots be the suicide bombers of the future? Warfare is being changed in a monumental shift, unlike anything in our history. Robotic war is here. What is unknown is how this shift will affect warfare, and mankind.
