“…Atas dasar hal tersebut, dalam kacamata militer, kendaraan udara tempur tak berawak/UAV ini telah menjadi senjata yang ikonik dalam peperangan modern [16] dan bahkan menjadi keajaiban bagi senjata perang hari ini [17]. UAV bahkan telah menjadi salah satu tulang punggung AS dalam perang melawan teroris dan pemberontak [18]. UAV juga dinilai telah digunakan untuk menyerang barisan konvoi yang membawa Moammar Qaddafi; membunuh Abu Yahya al Libi dan Anwar al Awlaki dari al Qaeda; jajaran Taliban dan militan lainnya di teater Afghanistan dan Pakistan; dan mencapai target dari Asia hingga Afrika-semuanya berlangsung tanpa membahayakan pilot [12].…”

Pengamanan wilayah teritorial Indonesia membutuhkan terobosan dalam hal strategi pengamanan wilayah. Hal tersebut disebabkan adanya keterbatasan sumber daya yang dimiliki pemerintah dibandingkan dengan luas wilayah yang menjadi tanggung jawabnya. Kemajuan iptek dalam penggunaan Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) telah memberikan terobosan sebagai solusi dalam strategi pengamanan wilayah secara lebih efektif dan efisien tanpa mengurangi kualitas pengamanan wilayah. TNI AU melalui Skuadron Udara 51 UAV, sebagai Skuadron Udara yang bertumpu pada penggunaan UAV, telah membuktikan bahwa penggunaan UAV mampu memberi kontribusi nyata pada strategi pengamanan wilayah. Ini dibuktikan dengan keterlibatan Skuadron Udara 51 UAV pada beberapa operasi yang memberikan hasil optimal dalam hal surveillance terhadap sasaraan/objek yang dituju. Dengan mengacu pada keunggulan yang dimiliki oleh Skuadron Udara 51 UAV, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa peran UAV dalam strategi pengamanan wilayah signifikan adanya. Sebagai tindak lanjut, diperlukan upaya peningkatan keluasan jangkauan UAV serta pemanfaatan hasil surveillance secara lebih luas dengan lintas institusi yang dapat diperluas sehingga penggunaannya dapat lebih dimaksimalkan.

“…There are already dozens of studies on drone "theory" (Chamayou, 2015), drone geography (Gregory, 2014) and the anthropology of drones (Gusterson, 2014) which primarily discuss the use of drones in warfare at a distance (Benjamin, 2015;Rae, 2014;Rogers and Hill, 2014). Few studies have ventured beyond the military gaze of the drone (Bousquet, 2018;Gregory, 2011) and the morality of remote killing (Himes, 2015;Strawser, 2014) but the interest in other institutional contexts of drone use has grown fast among geographers (Birtchnell andGibson, 2015, Klauser andPedrozo, 2017a). Scholars have emphasized the need to look beyond the "terror" and barbarism inflicted by the drone and further examine its ability to explore atmospheres and witness the edges of social or geographic entities (Fish, 2019), as well as to engage with the drone as a revolutionary, multi-sensory device that is not limited to enhancing our visual perception alone (Garrett and McCosker, 2017).…”

In this article we will discuss the use of drones, as well as the visual simulation of drone afforded aesthetics, by activists, artists and protesters. We use the existing literature of surveillance studies and visual studies to examine how exactly a drone-afforded visibility emerges and how it mediates the visibility of a particular community or space of contention. We draw on the concepts of "surveillance capacities" and (counter) visibility practices to analyze the process and production of drone (and drone-simulated) counter surveillant artist/activist visibility. The article makes several key points. The first one concerns the construction of protest space and the protest site volumetrically from the airborne perspective of the citizen drone via an assemblage of artist/activist practices. These practices include the use of drones, as well as dronesimulated imagery. The latter includes, DIY aerial camera rigs attached to kites and the use visual social media platforms such as Instagram to curate otherwise less visible military drone geographies more 'real' and proximate. The second concerns the visibility of subjects engaged in the protest space. And finally, we elaborate how events are presented dynamically (rhythmically) through drone videos and a drone-afforded visual grammar. Our assumption is that drones, as well as drone-simulated imagery allow the user to generate a hybrid participative (inclusive) visibility that makes protest more spectacular through its volumetric vision, subverting the visibility of control while striving for visibility of recognition. Overall, this article seeks to further elaborate on the visual turn within sociology, specifically in relation to what are now commonplace volumetric practices of power, representation and participation.

“…Moreover, while the more spectacular lethal effects of drone weaponization preoccupy both celebratory and critical discussions, the rapid integration of the technology into civil society challenges the exceptionality of the technology. Particularly over the last ten years, the drone's more transparently military applications -such as aerial surveillance and "signature strikes" that lead to large-scale civilian casualties -have come to coexist with the brisk development of humanitarian nongovernmental, business, and recreational automated aerial technologies (see Sandvik and Jumbert 2017;Klauser and Pedrozo 2017). Even as public awareness of the pervasive military use of drones has steadily increased, a veritable boom in civilian and commercial applications of the technology has taken place.…”

Drones as “Atmospheric Policing”

The use of drones to supplement and operationalize US border enforcement and municipal policing disturbs the supposed boundary between military and civilian or battleground and home front. Situating drones in an expanded field of a war power–police power nexus draws together histories of so-called small wars, insurgencies, civil rebellions, labor strikes, prison uprisings, and practices of resistance at various scales that have responded and continue to respond to colonial occupation and racial capitalism. Once we situate drones as a technology of atmospheric policing, we develop a better understanding of the ways these assemblages converge with other forms of atmospheric violence, including the toxic colonial present of warfare.
