Abstract
An unmanned flying aircraft without a pilot on board will be referred to as a drone. Drones can be operated remotely or equipped with onboard processors for a certain level of autonomy. The extent to which a drone can be deemed autonomous is a topic of discussion. Numerous drone types exist in a wide range of sizes and shapes, and each type of drone has unique ethical concerns. The premise that what a drone plays is an action, but that this action is an extension of what someone does, is the inspiration of moral issues surrounding drones.
