While the platform is the most visible component of a UA system, in the broad perspective, the platform needs to become less of a long-term sustainable resource.  Replacement or modification of platforms are expected to increase as more emphasis is placed on spiral acquisition and integrated capabilities.  It is unlikely that sustaining UA airframes for more than a few decades will be cost effective.  Where appropriate, the Department of Defense (DoD) will encourage the treatment of UA systems as consumables. This could avoid the establishment of large sustainment structures.  If users can adapt tactics and doctrine to accommodate a commercially available item, then this can provide DoD with affordable alternatives to the legacy cycle of develop-produce-sustain.
Legacy and contemporary use of UA platforms have established two intrinsic advantages DoD will continue to capitalize on when solving mission area problems.  First, the UA can provide a level of persistence that far exceeds the human capacity to endure.  Second, removing the human from the aircraft

provides options for risk taking and risk avoidance not previously available.  Combined, these tenets continue to offer transformational opportunities.  “Cost” can no longer be considered an advantage unique to any unmanned vehicle.  History has taught that if UA are going to fly regularly in any nation’s controlled airspaces, then those UA must functionally meet the same “reliability” standards as manned aircraft. As a result, the cost per pound of unmanned becomes practically the same as manned.  However, this implies if a “class” of UA does not have to fly in controlled airspace, and thus does not need to be certified to the same reliability levels, then the advantage in the design process results in cost/pound production savings.  This appears to be applicable to some small UA, and potentially all of the MAVs.  It suggests a potential for staggering life-cycle cost savings if the procurement of these aircraft can be treated as a consumable item.
MISSION
UA have “turned the corner” with regard to mission application.  DoD no longer needs to search for niche missions for UA. Supported by government laboratory research, the U.S. aerospace and software industries are world leaders and understand the science, engineering, and art required to develop and produce world-class UA capabilities. For the next 25 years, DoD will focus the labs and industry on the following mission areas:  intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), SEAD, destruction of enemy air defense (DEAD), electronic attack (EA), anti-surface ship warfare, anti-submarine warfare, mine warfare, ship to objective maneuver, communications relay, and derivations of these themes.  Offensive and defensive counter air and airlift missions will remain on the “to do” list, awaiting improvements in autonomy and cognitive capabilities.
