Defence Studies: Vol 20, No. 3, September 2020, pp. 185-201 (105)Summary: The paper makes an empirical contribution to the study of tactical UAVs. It examines the Swedish UAV program, which is in certain ways representative of a smaller state's efforts to incorporate UAVs into its armed forces. The paper argues that it is crucial to think in terms of systems rather than the UAV as a free-standing resource to be used on its own. If utilized along with other ISR assets, tactical UAVs may have a significant role to play in asymmetric conflicts.
