Russia’s military says it is ready to start producing a fully autonomous armored combat system to operate on the battlefield with only remote control and support from personnel. This system is Russia’s T-14 Armata tank.
“The future belongs to unmanned [battle] vehicles. To ensure transition to fully robotic machines, we must achieve new levels of automatization, and secure the principles of remote control,” Andrey Terlikov, the chief designer of the T-14 Armata tank, told RT.
“This vehicle has everything necessary to take the decisive step towards remotely controlled autonomous combat vehicles," he added.
So, is Armata going to fight by itself? Not just yet, the designer says, but soon. "Armata is a manned tank, but its ability to operate without crew is a matter of the immediate future,” Terlikov said.
Russia’s military has shown off the Armata tank for the Zvezda military TV channel.
you know, i doubt they have even given any thought, to what would happen if a fully autonomous bipedal humanoid drone, got into and took over the tank, and then acted without moral or legal responsibilities of a human being, like they have been -programmed to do and start tpo slaughter every human in sight as it would perceive all humans as a threat, from those on its side trying to stop it from going off mission, and those on the other side trying to get their tank back, then its operation humanmeat part2
