Armies could someday GROW their own drones using massive tubs of chemicals

Battlefields of the future could enable armies to respond quickly to threats by'growing' unmanned aircraft in the field. In a futuristic vision of warfare, British defence firm BAE Systems has described its plans for a radical new concept for developing new prototypes of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Called the Chemputer, its developers claim the concept could provide a significant advantage by slashing production times from years to just a matter of weeks. Grow your own drones: British defence firm BAE Systems has announced its plans to develop a'Chemputer' in which prototypes could be'grown' rapidly (concept illustrated).
