Perspective – Send in the Robots: Counter-Terrorism Response and Emerging Drone TechnologyZachary Kallenborn, Derrick Tin, and Gregory CiottoneTerrorists, suicide bombers in particular, create chaos and bring death and destruction to the masses. [15]ConclusionThe rapid advances in drone technology have opened a world of possibilities for counter-terrorism medicine, disaster response, healthcare delivery, and disaster recovery. Second, response organizations from FEMA and county emergency response organizations to insurance companies and local hospitals should adopt pilot programs incorporating new drone technologies. That means long-term research and development relationships, dedicated drone response offices, dedicated training programs, modified response plans, and, hopefully, reduced harm from the worst attacks. Disaster response organizations need to look ahead to not just where the technology is, but where it is going.
