Summary/Abstract: The landscape of international relations is currently shaped by new technologies, along with the development of AI, drones transformed some nations into providers and others into consumers in the ongoing technological race. The motivation behind the acquisition or production of drones is rooted in the cost-advantage associated with their use. In neorealism, due to the importance given to security, the use of drones for targeting strikes aligns with the objective of security prioritisation. This study entails a comparative analysis between Türkiye and Japan’s usage of drones intended to showcase the importance of this tool in a state’s priorities through the lens of structural realism.
