A Russian fighter jet collided with a U.S. military drone over the Black Sea today, causing the drone to crash into the water. The American military says the drone was on a routine mission in international airspace when the two Su-27 fighters intercepted and began to interfere with it, repeatedly dumping fuel on it before eventually crashing into it. The drone, an MQ-9 Reaper, has been one of the workhorses of the U.S. military’s unmanned aerial force for more than two decades.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As military technology has advanced, military leaders have searched for a way to take out targets without putting troops in harm\u2019s way. This has led to the development and use of unmanned aerial vehicles, also known as drones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These vehicles give militaries the option of bombing targets from the air with no pilot required, at least no pilot onboard. Over 100 countries have some kind of a military drone program, with military powers like China, Russia, and the U.S. constantly updating and innovating their fleets to have the fastest and most powerful drones in the skies.<\/span><\/p>\n

To find some of the top military drones in the world today, 24\/7 Wall St. reviewed several lists from <\/span>HotCars<\/span>, <\/span>AutoJournalism.com<\/span>, and from <\/span>The Newsmen<\/span>. Only drones currently in service or operationally ready were included. Drones are listed in alphabetical order (not considering the manufacturer name).<\/span><\/p>\n

As with any cutting edge military technology, developing and procuring state-of-the-art drones is an expensive proposition. Military contractors have contracts worth millions – if not billions – of dollars to build drone fleets for militaries across the world. <\/span>These are the companies profiting the most from war.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though drone strikes keep pilots and soldiers out of the battlefield, this separation can lead to issues, and the use of drones is controversial. A number of botched U.S. drone strikes have killed civilians. Over the past two decades, drone strikes have killed hundreds if not thousands of non-combatants in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, and Yemen, according to groups like the Bureau of Investigative Journalism and Amnesty International. (<\/span>These are the wars in which the most Americans died<\/span>.)<\/span><\/p>\n
