India Developing Robot Soldiers For Warfare

Yeah, they even have their own camo.
Here's an idea nobody's had yet...robot soldiers. Oh, wait a minute... everybody's had that idea and it's only a good idea in the movies.

But that's not stopping India. Both The Times of India and India Today are reporting that the Indian military is developing robotic soldiers to replace humans on the battlefield.

As the article in the Times notes, "These can then be deployed in difficult warfare zones, like the Line of Control (LoC), a step that would help avert the loss of human lives."

This is just another wasteful, short sighted idea coming from small minds. What, are they going to fight other robots? And then what are they going to do after they've destroyed each other? Go home and start families? How about we just take the metal they're going to be made of and beat it into plowshares instead?
