Drones go places and do things that we wouldn't send manned vehicles to do in the first place.

UAVs are much much better than human piloted aircraft for these missions; they can stay aloft for longer periods, at lower altitudes and lower speeds, and are expendible, not to mention cheaper.

Yes that claim was used to justify ending the F-22, and trying to end the F-35.
