>the Autonomous Warrior experiment will last four weeks and test a range of prototype unmanned aerial and autonomous ground vehicles which aim to reduce the danger to troops during combat. The exercise will finish with a battlegroup experiment, where the best ideas and products will be tested in the toughest of simulated operational environments.
It's a good idea for hunting insurgents and area denial, Hauling shit is a maybe since they could probably do the same fucking thing, cheaper with an hacked up atv. However without even a simple remote gun it's moved from asset to a liability.
>That thing would get rekt in no time at all. That's kind of the point, have the robot take the hits and do all the dangerous work so troops don't have to. That Chinese thing probably costs a half a million a well trained US infantryman probably costs 5 to 7 million. Why not train the to run cheap ass robots then have them do all the dirty work and lower the risk. And who the fuck cares if robots get shot up and left on the battlefield, things probably cost more to ship back to the US and refurbish than just building another one.

It's designed to provide weapons, not to fight. Which makes more sense than the world's shittiest tank.
