Humans mark targets; drones autonomously track and engage them.

Humans decide what needs to be done. They set the mission, the targets, the rules of engagement, when to abort, and what to do in every fallback scenario. Once drones launch, they execute according to what humans decided. In our seek and hit missions, surveillance drones find targets and send video to the operator. The operator marks the target. Then terminal guidance and tracking while attack drones are incoming is done autonomously by the drones themselves. The human decision was the thing at these coordinates at this timestamp is your target.
