One, it is still a stretch to say UAVs have "taken over the USAF." They are still run by, and need, pilots.
However, you are right in that many zoomies who went in thinking they'd be working a stick and rudder have found that their stick has a cable on it attached to a CPU.
While the USN does have UAVs, they aren't manned by guys shanghai'ed out of pilot gigs, at least not entry level (though I did meet 2 ensigns flying Pioneers who were flt school attrites--this was 11 years ago). They are much smaller in number, both in absolute and relative terms. In 10-15 years, the USN may be significantly more affected by them, though.
Alright, so if I graduate in 2014 I should be okay? Thanks for the reply!
