New military robot

Well here is a new robot that is in development for the Maines. Looks like it will be tracked and be able to fire and trasport weapons. Here are some pics:

So what do you think of military robots? Will they become effective.

i like this idea better than the draft...but then the whole Matrix ordeal happens, and we're all screwed

Just wait for a hacker to turn it around... I love robots but I don't think I could ever trust one with a gun.

i would have to agree with you on that one!

I've seen it on Future Fighting Machines.It's pretty adaptible.It fired a machine gun,smoke screen,knocked through some trees.Cool system.

not a Metal Gear, but a step forward

No, robots wont be hacked, and cant. Every PERSONAL COMPTUER has a M.A.C address and a INTERNET PROTOCAL for every LAN connection. Palms i think have TRAS? You cant make a vaild connection between a TRA and a LAN connection. Even so, the govt will have a firwall to prevent it and prob encrypted commands. Only was was if you took over the base were they control it. And they will prob have there way of sending packets, instead of INTERNET, it could be INTRANET. Many ways it wont be hacked. Unless, with every unstopable thing brings new flaws. But, there never will be, that I know of thats possible.

Sorry for spelling, dont like making posts :/

3 words, electromagnetic-pulse

Electromagnatic pulse? cool, theres a thing around everytime. But I was talking about HACKING it. and hacking a robot is unknown, no known commands. Like PC == DDOS, Robot == unknown!

yes there is, look:


Dir c:/

c:/hack robot

proceeding 1%

see?

and how about jamming the robbot?

it dosent look cool enough... it totally needs to be more stealthy something that will make the enemy point and marvel at its "kickazzness" just before it blows them a new one

Cool, but you ever think its that easy? DIR is to get the root of a selected directory. But, how would you get to the command DIR in MSDOS? MSDOS is for WINDOWS. C:\ ( No knowledge to you because you used "/" ) is for PERSONAL COMPTUERS. Well, I dont want to let you down, but it cant be done. If you want to think other wise, then cool. Denial is the best thing for pleasure.

One more time HE proves to be a MORON!

P.S. Not everybody is as stupid as you.
If you are smart enough(and there is smart people on earth unlike you) you can hack ANYTHING!!

You can even turn the USA lights off!!

Looks like all those video games might pay off after all.

Watch for Space Invaders....for real!

Yeah this is the same machine that used to be called the MULE. It is undergoing testing as part of the US Army's Land Warrior System.

Adds an Interesting Force Multiplier to the battlefield.

Better Uses:

Mobile medical / immunisation centre

Autonomus Ressupply of Arctic / Antarctic / Desert settlements and research stations....

Mobile Vending machine!

first the af develops planes that dont need pilots..now the marines r developing these HK lookin things...SKYNET is takin over! i got an idead for a DoD robot..maybe they could make some to guard the nukes so i wouldnt have to freeze my ass off out there

Seeing as you have no idea what is being talked about Russian i suggest you shut up before making yourself look even more like a fool. Obviously you have no idea what hacking is or how it is done. You must have a connection to said system to hack it... There are places you cannot hack from the outside. Please restrain yourself from making too many more ignorant posts like this one.
