The Return of the Drones Clones

Following the recent Drones conference in Bristol, details have been announced for a major conference and exhibition in Bath.

Drones are computer-guided aircraft without onboard pilots, known as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In recent years there has been an exponential increase in their military use in state surveillance and bombing raids. Deployment in Afghanistan, Pakistan, the Middle East and North Africa has led to increased allegations of their role in
civilian casualties and extra-judicial killings.


Specialist conferences for procurement represent rich opportunities to profit from the suffering. The Unmanned Aerial Systems Conference takes place in Bath from 25th-28th June 2012. It will be opposed. You can check them out at:  http://www.unmanned-aerial-systems.com/
