TRUTH BE TOLD: War Cost

War Cost - Drone

Welcome to the Unmanned Drone, Surveillance & War Costs Section of the ADC Website.

The United States has embarked on Worldwide and Domestic Drone Programs. Unmanned Drones are being used in foreign countries and in the United States. They carry surveillance cameras, recording equipment, bombs, and other weapon systems.
In recent years the U.S. government has decided to allow the use drones within the borders of the United States. The following government reports, newspaper articles, and other information is provided for your information regarding the expansion and use of unmanned drones worldwide and in the United States.
Many unmanned aerial vehicles now under production vary in size from those as small as your fingetip to as large as full-scale airplanes capable of carrying missiles and bombs. And model radio control small airplanes, cars, and helicopters can be purchased at your local toy stores or hobby shops. The elementary technology has been in existence for more than fifty years. It has only been in more recent times that more sophisticated technology, computers, cameras, listening devices, fuels, lighter and stronger contstruction materials, and other inventions have contributed to new uses for unmanned vehicles (drones).
Unmanned Drones are plagued by crashes, malfuctions, use of defective parts from foreign countries like China, accidents (including hitting other aircraft), loss of control, lost drones, and other problems. Military drones are being tested over land areas in the United States while carrying weapons systems, missiles, bombs, and while using experimental and dangerous fuels, like hydrogen, or powered by nuclear power as is proposed by the U.S. government. The potential for accidents has already been clearly demonstrated in news and government reports over the past few years.
UAV / Drone Wars, Surveillance, (including Spy Satellite usage), have broad implications regarding our civil rights, human rights, privacy, and constitutional issues which have not been addressed at this time. Do we want to live in a society which has no privacy and no civil rights under our U.S. Constitution? Do we want to live in a police state?
Many manufacturers and the U.S. government promote the idea that unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), have only beneficial uses to entice the American people to accept their use within our borders without question. The majority of expanding unmanned drone uses are growing exponentially and are being used as war weapons, for police activities, and surveillance at taxpayer expense.
U.S. Department of Defense July 2012 Report: http://www.fas.org/irp/agency/dod/dsb/autonomy.pdf
The ADC invites you to become informed about this issue. Our elected officials are rubber-stamping their usage without public debate. It is time for us to have this debate.

U.S. Constitution - Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure:

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

Unmanned Aerial Drones - Increasing Use by Local Police Departments

American taxpayers are subsiding the purchasing of drones or UAVs by local police departments at a tremendous cost - manpower to run the computers, fuel and repair costs (parts and labor), human training costs, weather problems, night vision technologies cost money and will use manpower during night use...and this means fewer policemen on the beat to respond to citizen complaints, crimes, and other issues. And this will mean an increase in airborne domestic surveillance.

Manufacturers & Contractors (List Not Complete)

Many manufacturers are requesting permission or have been granted permission to sell unmanned aerial vehicles to other countries for commercial use...the problem is that they can be weaponized very easily...and used against the U.S. This will have the impact of making Americans less secure than ever before...as detection will become almost impossible due to size, materials, and stealth capabilities. The U.S. has already lost drones in other countries and it won't be long before many countries worldwide have this technology.
The United States is now, at taxpayer expense, going to arm NATO drones and unmanned aerial vehicles. It won't be long before other countries will be selling this hardware and software to other foreign countries. The U.S. is setting up drone bases in South America and Africa - continuing to enrich the drone manufacturers.

The Washington Post has supplemented the data with information about more recent strikes. In most cases, the record for each strike includes links to related news reports; in cases in which there were multiple strikes on the same day in the same area, only one set of news reports is cited. When possible, the database includes the names of prominent militant leaders killed in individual strikes. The database does not include the exact number of those killed, given widespread discrepancies in various accounts and the difficulty of confirming reported tolls. By some estimates, the number of militants and civilians killed in the drone campaign over the past 10 years will soon exceed 3,000..."

You take it very personally...Even without firing a shot, the drone, remote pilotless aircraft (RPA), unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), call it what you will, is the perfect weapon of intimidation...The media is beginning to go micro, exploiting rapid advances in technology by deploying small toy-like UAVs to get the story...Australia's fledgling UAV industry may be about to get a big wake-up call from China..."

U.S. Plans to Arm Italy's Drones - May 29, 2012 - Wall Street Journal
"...WASHINGTON—The Obama administration plans to arm Italy's fleet of Reaper drone aircraft, a move that could open the door for sales of advanced hunter-killer drone technology to other allies, according to lawmakers and others familiar with the matter... Lawmakers who question the planned deal say the decision to "weaponize" Italy's unarmed surveillance drones could make it harder for the U.S. to deny similar capabilities to other North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies, and set back efforts to urge sales limitations on other nations that make sophisticated drones such as Israel. Advocates say such sales would enable trusted allies to conduct military missions on their own as well as help open markets for U.S. drone manufacturers. The administration sent a confidential "pre-notification" to (U.S.) congressional panels in April detailing its plan to sell kits to Italy to arm up to six Reaper drones, which are larger, more-powerful versions of Predators..."

Levin explains that the news laws say that parts can only be bought from contracted, authorized distributors or certified suppliers and dictates that suppliers will be responsible for their own repairs.

Police Drones Are Already Here Defense Tech News March 8, 2012 - So everyone noticed when Congress told the FAA to get American airspace ready for regular drone flights, this move prompted a general Internet freakout about privacy concerns. No one likes the thought of being watched by the very drones that spy on suspected insurgents on Middle Eastern battlefields. Well, U.S. police departments are already gearing up to deploy UAV in American cities. The video below shows the Seattle Police Department’s new Draganflyer UAV. The kite-sized micro chopper weighs three pounds and can stay aloft for about 20 minutes. As a Seattle PD officer explains in the video, it’s not allowed to fly above 400 feet and has to be operated from a SPD vehicle. Just wait, though, law enforcement agencies accross the country will soon have bigger drones capable of conducting serious suveillance. Heck, a much bigger Shadowhawk drone-chopper belonging to the Montgomery County,Texas, Sheriff’s Office recently crashed into a SWAT truck belonging to said office.

The Subcommittee looked at the increasing use of drones domestically and how they impact people’s privacy. Drones have been used by police departments, colleges and some federal agencies. In its 2012, reauthorization, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was directed by Congress to safely open domestic airspace to wider use of drones by 2015. The FAA is expected to release a proposed rule later this year, which would establish policies, procedures and standards for the unmanned aircrafts..."
