Unmanned aircraft are generally used by the military for spying on terrorist camps and even threatening enemy aircraft, but now, soon they could be seen flying domestic skies too.

They would work as airborne traffic cops, patrolling the border and maybe even shuttling cargo between cities.

"They are inherently more green. They use less gas, have less weight and overall less waste,"Discovery News quoted Wesley Randall, a former Air Force logistics officer and professor at Auburn University, as saying.
