US Military:
For Corporal Albert Pasquale. It is time that the US Military create a robotic soldier that can travel with troops and go ahead of a formation to draw out enemy fire and possibly either carry supplies or actually engage. A track vehicle is not a good enough decoy. We have the understanding, technology, and determination to make it happen. DOIT!!!
US MIlitary:
Yesterday there was an Iranian Naval ship that surrendered to Sri Lanka, I believe. We need to always board those ships to see if there are any cargo of interest, example: such as blueprints for launchers to be produced in China or elsewhere, radioactive material, bio-agents, or any other items of interest. Another thing to consider is, any possible underground tunnels into neighboring countries that could be used as a supply channel. It is in China's interest to supply Iran covertly to keep them afloat, so all cargo belonging to them should be monitored in the straits, railways, and any underground tunnels. ThankQ for your attention to this matter.
Absolutely. Ground wars are more difficult now a days with the advent of hypersonic missiles, and the current known tactic of sniping through small holes in walls. It would be nice if these robots could be capable of seeing through walls and relay that info to troops in the formation. There are only seconds in a fire fight, and that could give us a tremendous advantage, and be the difference between life and death. Doesn't have to be perfect, just enough to fool an enemy at a distance, which is usually around 300 - 500 feet.
Priorities:
Decoy and lifelike walking
Ability to see through walls
Ability to carry supplies
Ability to engage
Ability to do medi-vac
Ability to do counters, jam and smoke
Ability to detonate into an area
Ability to translate
Ability to detect radiation, toxins, mines
Ability of all of the above.
Absolutely, we know we have these capabilities to a degree already. I would set some of the Boston Robotics up in full fatigue, in case of a ground war. A walking robot could drag a soldier out of harms way, or transform it's back into a wheeled position to carry a soldier. This would allow others to defend or apply treatment as patient is being moved. When one soldier is down, usually there are at least two soldiers that tend, depending on the status that would be one or two more soldiers in the battle.
US Military:
Eventually the US will need to setup counter missile defenses around the mountain ranges of the Strait of Hormuz on both sides. Bridging the mountains is no easy task and the US Military should have aerial vehicles such as this, to go over the mountains, to carry personnel and supplies, and to immediately evacuate if necessary. Although we do have blackhawks, stallions, cobras, and apaches, these are harder to fly and takes years of training. As a monolithic solution, for the cost, they do not provide the disperse factor nor the time to theater that for the same cost, a series of these types of air transports can supply but would complement our helicopter and ospry mechanized forces. If we could build some of these units that are capable of carrying two, it could provide tremendous advantage. One thing that always bothered me about helo types, is that, most troops are not utilized until they land, whereas something like this exponentially increases utilization. ThankQ for your attention to this matter.
US Mil:
Consider the ingress and egress, that something like this could give our troops. They only have to have enough armament to stop 7.62 rounds, as they are not replacements for other inventory. This would also negate at most land mine navigation. In addition, an unmanned one remotely controlled could also drag a rake to test for mines before other land in the vicinity to hold positions. Equipping some of these with nose machine guns, grenade launchers, smoke, and other things, would be new orchestrations while safeguarding lives that have to ingress by foot alone.
President Trump:
With Total Surrender, Iran should recompensate for any financial loss that the US has put up to free their country from tyranny by taking a percentage of the oil revenues until such time that the US can recap it's losses, and build bases that can guarantee free trade in Straits of Hormuz. One such project should be using a tunnel boring machine to cut through the mountains to put small bases on both sides for anti-missile and drone batteries, thus securing free trade forever. ThankQ for your attention to this matter!!!
