FIGHTING MILITARY ROBOTS MilitaryPress Writer Rick Thomas
weapon systems having the capability to counter any attack. Such military robots are assembled with several codes and algorithms.
Today, the nature of warfare has changed drastically, and technology plays a key role in shaping warfare tactics. The threats faced by militaries are uncertain, with populated places often being the battlefields, and enemies tactically innovative, highly networked, and intelligent. This overpowers the superiority an army may have in terms of conventional warfare capabilities. Technological advancements, however, have given countries the capability to counter enemy attacks in an efficient and effective manner. One such advancement has been in the field of military robotics.
Companies are configuring and testing advanced robots that can navigate a vehicle around a series of pylons, traverse different terrains, climb ladders, remove debris, operate in a disaster situation, and close a series of valves. Small robots are increasingly being used in military applications, from ISR to underwater mine clearance and inspection. Bluefin Robotics, a subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation (US), has developed a miniature AUV named SandShark which has a diameter of 5 inches and length ranging from 23 inches to 60 inches depending on the payload. The company has delivered 10 SandSharks to Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) under the Adaptive Sensor System program. DARPA, along with some institutions, will use SandSharks for experimental purposes.
Nowadays, robots in the military are an alternative to human soldiers. These robots are being designed to handle a broader range of combat tasks, from picking off snipers to carrying out target acquisition with greater efficiency as compared to human soldiers. They can be deployed in situations and areas which are dangerous and can kill or maim troops. Army robots can provide a backup during heavy artillery fire and reduce the number of casualties. They can also map a potentially large hostile area by accurately detecting a variety of threats. Military robots come in different shapes and sizes depending on the requirement, and they may be remotely controlled or fully autonomous. Robots consist of different types of payloads depending on the application. Depending on the application requirements, sensors, detectors, weapons, programmed software, and other payloads can be equipped on robots used in the military.
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is financing a robotic submarine system that could be used intelligently for several applications ranging from detecting underwater mines, engaging in anti-submarine operations, and protecting ships in harbors.
An analysis by MarketsandMarkets indicates that the military robots industry is expected to reach USD 30.83 billion by 2022,
Types of Military Robots There have been several major strides in the development of military robotics Militaries are focusing increasingly on due to the technological advancements the development of various new robot All these benefits are driving the in automation and sensors systems. technologies that can be helpful for militaries worldwide to employ robots Today, robots are equipped with armies in case of war.

Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) is one of the major applications where military satellites are used. UAVs, UGVs, USVs, ROVs, AUVs, and others are extensively used in the ISR application. Small UAVs are used in the military sector mainly to provide battlefield intelligence. Currently, armed forces worldwide no longer rely on human scouts and instead use small robots, which can remain almost invisible to the enemy. These robots help monitor enemy forces or specific areas and send videos and images to the ground station with the assistance of GPS. UAVs are used for ISR operations to record potential target information that is difficult to detect.

The 5 Most Powerful Armies in the World
The U.S., Global Firepower says, is the “undisputed” top military power in the world.
With an estimated active military personnel of 247,160, this Asian country only has a fraction of the headcount that volatile neighbor North Korea has, but makes up for it with its updated weaponry. Japan has 152 special mission aircraft – more than any country in the world other than the U.S., according to Global Firepower’s statistics – and a formidable Navy fleet that contains 40 destroyers.
Fox News | By Greg Norman It also has 3,130 armored vehicles, 1,004 tanks and 119 attack helicopters.
Battlefields are constantly evolving, leading countries around the world to pump hundreds of billions of dollars each year into their armed forces in a race to develop the most advanced training, technology and weaponry.
Japan is estimated to spend $49 billion on its military in 2020.
As of 2020, Global Firepower, a website that tracks military strength, says the following five armies are the most powerful, based on a rank given to them after looking at how they compare in categories “ranging Japan’s armed forces have to contend from military might and financials to with a volatile neighbor in North logistical capability and geography”: Korea.

“If you look out of the windows on the starboard side of the aircraft, you will observe that both the starboard engines are on fire.
Then the child spoke into the instrument,
“If you look out of the windows on the port side, you will observe that the port wing has fallen off. “If you look down towards the Atlantic ocean, you will see a little yellow life raft with three people in it waving at you. “That’s me your captain, the co-pilot, and one of the air stewardesses. This is a recorded message.”

A young man hired by a supermarket reported for his first day of work. The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile, gave him a broom and said, “Your first job will be to sweep out the store.” “But I’m a college graduate,” the young man replied indignantly. “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t know that,” said the manager. “Here, give me the broom - I’ll show you how.”
ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION A farmer is giving his wife last-minute instructions before heading to town to do chores. “That fellow from Sematol will be along this afternoon to inseminate one of the cows.
