A Russian fighter jet severely damaged an American drone in the skies over Syria earlier this month, marking the second such incident this year. The fighter released a stream of burning hot flares in the path of an unmanned MQ-9 Reaper, indicating how automatic, push-button warfare can make it easier to open fire on a target—and potentially dramatically increase the odds an armed incident could spiral out of control.
