I agree as an eye in the sky they have a great future but I cant see the payload issue being overcome anytime soon , for intel yes for offensive use probably not in my lifetime.....I know people will point out some of these uav's are armed but the armed ones are the size of a small Cessna, cost millions and require a not insignificant degree of support...intel is where its at for the cheap small drones not offensive capabilities....in the land of the blind the one eyed man is king!
