In 2005, 5% of military aircraft were drones.

In 2011, 33% of them are.

They are incorporating them with the Combat Aviation Brigade here at Fort Riley. Having worked on the base a couple years ago I became used to seeing them fly over when I was in the training areas. The control points are pretty neat.
