[...] un drone peut être placé dans une situation dangereuse sans risques de perte humaine. Argument de plus en plus porteur en termes médiatiques et stratégiques, avec l'apparition du concept de «zéro mort». Depuis la guerre du Viêt-Nam, en effet, l'opinion publique américaine a beaucoup plus de mal que dans le passé à accepter la mort de militaires au combat ainsi que leur capture. Les armées se sont donc engagées dans une politique de protection du soldat, cherchant à minimiser systématiquement les missions dangereuses. 2, record 2, French, - z%C3%A9ro%20mort
