Military planners worldwide see drones as relatively cheap weapons and highly effective reconnaissance tools.
Defense spending on drones has become the most dynamic sector of the world’s aerospace industry
China on fast track
No country has ramped up its research in recent years faster than China. It displayed a drone model for the first time at the Zhuhai air show five years ago, but now every major manufacturer for the Chinese military has a research center devoted to drones, according to Chinese analysts.
Much of this work remains secret, but the large number of drones at recent exhibitions underlines not only China’s determination to catch up in that sector — by building equivalents to the leading U.S. combat and surveillance models, the Predator and the Global Hawk — but also its desire to sell this technology abroad.
“The United States doesn’t export many attack drones, so we’re taking advantage of that hole in the market,”

I’m sorry. This is a snotty question to ask, but the lack of joy that accompanies any discussion of being a member of a believing community (in my case, Catholic) really sucks. Back when I was a kid, life really did revolve around the church community. It was not just sunday Mass: it was school and celebrations of minor feast days and music and art and scouts and little league and fish fries and … just a lot of fun and good life. It was energetic and rich, regardless of how well-off or poor we were economically. I’m watching all the network “Christmas”-related programming lately and to me it looks like popular culture is utterly clueless about why this holiday has such a name. It’s all just louder and flashier advertising so that it looks a little different from the loud, flashy advertising that now drones on all year long.
For the last several decades, both the fake-fundy republicans and poorly-selected clergy have mis-marketed Jesus as a mouthpiece for their own neuroses and agendas rather than permitting his ultimate instruction that we “love one another” to be heard…the message that gave rise to that warm and supportive community and all that fun.
Even if you can’t stand how boring, opinionated or out of touch your priest or minister is, just pay attention to the Word, and even if a lot of that seems incomprehensible, filter it through the lens of “love one another” and you’ll probably hear it right…and it probably does not have a whole heck of a lot to do with angel wings taped to the underfed shoulders of a Victoria’s Secret model. Give me a break.
