Well, let's just hope they fix it soon, would be a shame to kill innocents and let the bad guys get away just because of some faulty code... Couldn't they just patch it up or hasn't enough time passed for the corrections to be ready to be implemented?

We've been using drones for years now, this all sounds very recent.

A Netezza email in the public record from October 13, 2009, indicates that, shortly before the partnership went sour, president Jim Baum wanted "to help our mutual customer reach his requirements" and that he (the client) believes that the expertise on his team is prepared to deal with early release software.

 

That's only a year ago! So as of 12 months ago this software was not being used in the field, but drones firing missiles were long before that. That means there's an older version of this software at a minimum that they could use.
