Drones go by many names, including unmanned aerial vehicles and remotely piloted aircraft. Basically, they are aircraft that do not have pilots sitting in them. The drone involved in the attack on Osama Bin Laden was an RQ-170 Sentinel. In the months before the attack, the RQ-170 spied on the terrorist’s compound, recording movements in and out of it. The night of May 1, 2012, U.S. President Barack Obama probably watched the attack live through an RQ-170 camera. The images made one thing clear: unmanned aircraft are changing the very nature of warfare. The RQ-170 Sentinel, used to plan and execute the attack on Osama Bin Laden, came equipped with advanced cameras and stealth technology that made it difficult for enemy radar to detect.
