Weaponised drones have revolutionised warfare, enabling governments
– and others – to kill at arm’s length without warning. But drones
are just part of an arsenal of next-generation weaponry whose very
presence gives new impetus to conflict, from canine war droids to
autonomous battle systems and beyond. Arthur Snell takes us from
the 1991 Gulf War and the Highway of Death to 9/11 and the rise of
asymmetric warfare – to discover how we opened a Pandora’s Box of
new and lethal technology. Support Doomsday Watch on Patreon and

drone on Amazon… and they’re being used in warfare now.”
– Ulrike Franke “All future conflicts will be drone conflicts.
The drone will always get through.” – James Rogers “If you
rewrite the rules so that you can strike anyone on a faraway
battlefield, you can’t be surprised when others do the same to
you.” – Arthur Snell Photograph: Getty Images Written and presented
