Bombs strapped to remote controlled planes aren't the weapons of the future. The American military has fucking autonomous robot dogs that carry machine guns and have thermal imaging sensors.
I disagree. Ukrainian style suicide drones combined with autonomous robot dogs carrying guns with thermal sensors are the weapons of the future, and it is a horrifying future. Governments will absolutely use both.
That looks like something that will work very well, until a bomb gets dropped on it from a $5 remote controlled plane.
*autonomous aircrafts with AI,tanks with AI.
