U.S. Shifts North Vietnam Recon Flights to Robots
Defense sources say the Pentagon bans rammed tactical reconnaissance fighters over North Vietnam and moves to unmanned robot aircraft and SR-71 Blackbird spy planes. Robotic crews remove risk to pilots and allow preprogrammed missions with live imagery and signals capture from extreme altitude, reducing potential for protective reaction strikes. The switch aims to preserve peace prospects by avoiding crewed incursions in hostile airspace.
