DAVE, WHAT ABOUT ESLT? REMOTE CONTROLLED HUNT AND KILL GIZMO?
Elbit, Inc. (ESLT) an Israeli provider of defense product products rolled out a prototype last week.
This robot has a cannon, a grenade launcher and machine guns. It can climb stairs and be controlled remotely by a an operator using a video camera. The Israelis plan to use it against Hamas and Hezbollah to reduce the hand to hand combat losses.
I figure the US dept of defense will order ten thousand dozen of these babies, not to mention local police departments around the civilized world.
