Drones the future of warfare?

Are Drones the future of warfare? Fighting ISIS in the open desert but I ask a more sophisticated enemy would fight back. After all in  world of Tony Stark's its big business but if the command centre is in Lincolnshire they need pretty damn good link to remote control their toys? I wouldn't rely on the internet or mobile phone signals. Yes I know the RAF have satellites but so do the others? (Russia/China etc.) so it would be so easy to bring them down and then where would your Drones be? Yes - on the ground - DEAD! The EMC from a nuclear blast would wipe out the comms as well - so easy. Drones are for Big Brother and bullies!

Drones run by Big Brother?

I wonder , these drones more and more they will be used for surveillance. I don't care what they tells us. Science Fiction comes true! Judge Dredd, 1984, etc?

Yes they are good technology for the Police to ue but utimately as they get smaller and more autonomous  "other" agencies will use them - mark my words.
