It is generally accepted that UAVs - unmanned aerial vehicles, otherwise known as drones, are used only for military purposes. This is a misconception: since the 60s of the last century, Russian and American specialists have been building unmanned UAVs not only for the armies of their countries, but also for peaceful purposes. The purpose of the article is to study the possibilities and progress in the development of drones for civil and needs. In preparing and writing the article, such research methods as general scientific methods of historical and logical, abstract and concrete, analysis and synthesis, comparisons and analogies were used. The main result of the study is the conclusion that unmanned aerial vehicles can be successfully used for civilian purposes, and not just for military purposes. Drones are now actively used for agricultural and environmental purposes. They are called “eco-drones”. They are no different from ordinary ones; the prefix is designed to emphasize their purely peaceful, scientific purpose.
