This case study examines the development, deployment, and operational effectiveness of military drones in modern defense strategies. It explores the technological evolution from early unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to advanced autonomous systems, focusing on design features, surveillance capabilities, precision strike functions, and integration with real-time data networks. The study highlights key operational scenarios where drones have enhanced situational awareness, reduced soldier risk, and improved mission success rates. Ethical considerations, including civilian safety, rules of engagement, and the potential for autonomous decision-making, are critically analyzed. Additionally, the paper evaluates the challenges of cybersecurity, counter-drone measures, and international regulatory frameworks. By synthesizing technical, strategic, and policy perspectives, this case study provides a comprehensive understanding of military drones as a transformative tool in 21st-century warfare.
