The UAVs have never been tested in battle against a stronger opponent. Its been used only against Iraq and Afghanistan both are primitive countries. What happens when they are used against say China (or say Russia)? The first thing the Chinese will do is bring down the satellites and then the drones will be flying blind. So i wouldnt be in too much of a hurry to write off manned Air Force yet.
