The U.S. army continues to develop and introduce new technologies that can help to conduct military operations in the future, minimizing the loss of personnel. Big bet the scientists and engineers working for the U.S. defense industry, makes robots and military drones. Them and tested during the joint exercise, initiated by commanders at the military base Fort Benning, located in Georgia.
Has been tested robotic Humvee SUVs, which are in the company of armored vehicles and air drones worked the orientation and unfolding on the ground, creating smoke screens for tanks, masking them before they engaged in battle with imaginary enemy.
Maneuverable robotic and automated system was first tested on this scale, and field conditions allowed to examine its strengths and weaknesses. Programme for the unification and collaboration of automated ground combat vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles, there are already more than three years, a demonstration of the capabilities of Autonomous systems was the first among many planned by the command in the future.
According to organizers, the project will implement a number of ideas aimed at improving the quality of warfare. In addition, the use lethally unmanned vehicles and robots and increase the range and duration of hostilities, as most automated devices do not require the assistance of operators and maintenance personnel.
