There is no debate on this.

Drones come in many forms. Just to give a few examples:

Iranian UAV

Homemade Palestinian UAV

Yemeni long-range UAV used by the Houthi rebels in their civil war and their war with ZOG (North Africa, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Jordan, possibly more) (unknown origin, called "Samad" drones)

Switchblade loitering munition

Modified civilian drones used to drop bombs and incendiaries in Ukraine

Literally lifefuel for ethnics.

Second place would be the Maxim machine gun. An oldie but a goody.

Drones can also spot targets for artillery to make their shots more accurate

What more could you ask for? JDAMs and just GPS-guided missiles altogether to significantly cut the cost of making precision weapons? We already have that technology right now.

This is the Iranian Fajr-5C GPS guided surface-to-surface missile:

That, combined with cybernetic warfare has made war itself much easier (not to mention cheaper).
