I find all of the military tech utterly amazing - and scary.

In the Marine Corps I was a TOW Gunner - shooting small wire guided missiles at tanks. Now, from what I've read.... Now they the Javelin, which is shoulder launched, automatically tracks a tank, and then destroys it from coming straight down out of the sky and punching through the top of the enemy tank. The best part is this is "old" already - 1996 technology. LOL.

Now they small drones they can launch the field, instant communications any where in the world; Someone in the United States can launch an attack and destroy an enemy tank from thousands of miles away. Fucking insane.

Wait until robots hit the battlefield. You know this is coming. We've all seen the Boston Dynamics videos....
