Musk: US needs more UAVs, hypersonic missiles for drone war

Moscow, Dec 27 (UNI) US billionaire Elon Musk said Friday that the United States needs more unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and hypersonic missiles, as they would be in high demand during a “drone war.”

“America needs a large quantity of long-range drones (air, surface water & submarine) and hypersonic missiles. Anything manned will die very fast in a drone war,” Musk said on X.

Musk has repeatedly expressed his view of future wars, saying that they will be drone wars and that countries with more advanced UAVs will be the winners, while conventional piloted fighter jets will be destroyed very quickly.
