    Aerial Target (AT) developed soon enough to be used against Zeppelins

    What if the Arial Target had been developed quicker, was available for some of the last Zeppelin raids on the UK and successfully brought one or more down, would that have any longer term effects?

    I wonder when will the AI become omnipresent in the small (FPS-alike) combat drones allowing them to be more autonomous? Should that happen by mid-2025? Will we see then the hunter-killer drones that will be able to precisely distinguish between the friendly and foe vehicles or combatants?
