Could expensive missile seekers lead countries back to a kamikaze concept?
Short answerProbably not, because drones already supply much of the expendable strike role without requiring a human-guided weapon.
NotesThe question imagines seeker cost and weight reviving a two-stage weapon in which a human-guided element performs the terminal attack. A renewed kamikaze system is not regarded as useful over the long term. Drones already provide an expendable strike mechanism without making a human pilot part of the weapon. Unmanned guidance removes the proposed rationale for sacrificing an operator.
