It's taken a while for it to become reliable, but most people have no idea that we had unmanned jet drones in Vietnam: Developed before the war in 1960. They brought back recon footage (and were used as part of the Son Tay helicopter raid)

I saw a helicopter drone from Vietnam in a museum... found footage of it here. 1967 (and yet we still use 2 pilots in the Army):

We've been perfecting it for many years... |
