In a Joint Media Release of November 16, 2018, Australia’s Minister for Defence, Christopher Pyne and Minister for Defence Industry, Steven Ciobo:
“...announced the selection of the General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper variant as the system which best meets the capability requirements for Australia’s first armed remotely piloted aircraft system.
Minister Pyne said the medium altitude long endurance aircraft can be integrated within the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and would be fully interoperable with our allies...”
“...“The aircraft will be operated under the same laws of armed conflict, international human rights law and rules of engagement as manned aircraft”, Minister Pyne said.”
“...The [Australian] Government will now request pricing and availability data from the United States on Reaper variants to support future decision-making on the acquisition.”

Australians have been remote piloting Reapers since 2015.
Reaper using allies, of course, include the US. Here are 9 other users to interoperate with.
