Unmanned land weapon delivery system developed ... future tech
Wow this is the first of what will be revolutionaly machines, welcome to the 21st century war, unmanned equipment.
Unmanned Ground Systems were also demonstrated by the IDF, which is already operating several types of tele-operated systems for specific missions. The ROEE tele-operated weapon carrier is an operational system, which can apidly deploy firing elements and sensors to positions located at high risk, exposed locations. A different robotic system is the Remote Controlled Tractor (RCT), used for clearing and activating mines and roadside explosive devices in sandy soil, in the securing of roads and axis for movement. The RCT is equipped with a video camera and a plough which is pushed forward of the vehicle, where it can detonate or unearth mines and explosives. The IDF is also evaluating a robotic buried mines locating platform. The lightweight tele-operated system has a low ground pressure, which enables it to move over a minefield. It is equipped with sensors which can accurately locate and mark The buried mines. Other small robots are operated bomb disposal teams.
