    That is nothing but marketing gimmick. Its appears more attractive to perspective cadets/soldiers to fly a UAV than feed command to computer that flies UAV. It is always better, efficient and less prone to mistake for computer to fly a UAV than a human.

Slat Armour disrupts the shaped charge of the warhead by either crushing it, preventing optimal detonation from occurring, or by damaging the fuzing mechanism or...
