Lol when did "unmanned Areal vehicles" become "remotely manned". They are not manned that's the whole fuckin point.

Remotely manned means that there is still a human in control and not a computer

As has been the case for all UAVs of the past and they are still called "unmanned". Manned used to mean "person on board" and it obviously does not mean that anymore. A remote controlled drone is still unmanned.

Yes they want to differentiate it from a AI controlled drone but it's a stupid way to do so.
