What scares me about drone strikes is how they are perceived around the world. The resentment created by American use of unmanned strikes... is much greater than the average American appreciates. They are hated on a visceral level, even by people who've never seen one or seen the effects of one.

The Progress is launched from Baikonur in Kazakhstan, just like the Soyuz. It almost looks the same as the Soyuz but unmanned, so, essentially filled up with supplies for us - anything from food, science experiments, repair parts, etc., can go in it.

We have lost one shuttle for every 57 flights and that is not a good ratio. I do believe we need to continue space flights, but maybe we can follow the example of the Russians and use unmanned vehicles to transport hardware into space.

The core businesses are transforming in very futuristic ways. You know, our aviation business, very interesting things are going on, and unmanned vehicles, drone technology, and things like that.

The threat of terrorism is great and with today's porous borders, someone could bring a biological weapon into our country or sneak a dirty bomb across unmanned portions of our borders.

Obama's drone program, in fact, amounts to the largest unmanned aerial offensive ever conducted in military history: never have so few killed so many by remote control.

Richard Perle

No operational commander should have to assign a soldier a task that could be done as well by a computer, a remote sensor, or an unmanned airplane.

Mississippi State University and other institutions are established leaders in the development and integration of unmanned aerial systems.

I worked on all of the Apollo manned missions and a couple of Apollo unmanned missions.

The threat from unmanned aircraft systems in the U.S. is steadily escalating.

Used often in contexts related to technology, especially when referring to robotic systems or automated processes.

Technology Context

Even though it sounds futuristic, 'unmanned' refers to real, current technology, not to science fiction gadgets.

Not Science Fiction

Implies safety or risk management by removing humans from dangerous roles or environments.

Safety and Risk

Often signifies self-service operations, where customers perform tasks usually done by staff.

Self-Service

Indicates a place may be accessible 24/7 without human staff present, offering more convenience.

Accessible Anytime

Reflects modern business trends focusing on automation and technology-driven solutions.

Modern Trends

 I mean, they are sexy -- but remember, 80 percent of the world's population lives by water, and that means our critical infrastructure is underwater -- the parts that we can't get to, like the bridges and things like that. And that's why we have unmanned marine vehicles,
