Vechtende robot voertuigen, niet alleen maar science fiction:"The U.S. Army will soon test a six-wheeled, 20-foot robot to see whether it can traverse rugged terrain, fire machine guns and carry 1,900 pounds of gear without soldiers remotely controlling its every move," Defense News reports.
The two-and-a-half ton Multifunction Utility Logistics and Equipment (MULE) vehicle is seen as the 'bot that will travel with every light infantry company in the Army of ten-to-fifteen years' hence. (Of course, with robots being cut left and right from the Army's future plans, you never can tell.)
