Aren't drones putting the air force slowly out of business?

Eventually we won't have asses in seats, but that's at least one generation away.  We've also got space and cyber and the computer game ninjas to fly the drones.

This is your air force.

This is your air force on budget cuts.

Any questions?

Honestly a $4.8 billion cut is not that big... The military still has tons of money to play around with.
