A US Army company commander used attack drones and ground robots to clear a breach.
Dozens of drones hit enemy mines, trenches, and barriers before two C4-packed ground robots finished the job.
The mission acted as a drone contact layer, putting the systems ahead of soldiers.
At a recent exercise at Fort Polk, Louisiana, a US Army company commander used attack drones and ground robots to destroy enemy positions, clearing the way for soldiers.
The drones and robots did the difficult and dangerous work that a rifle company might otherwise have had to do, showing the role Army uncrewed systems could play in future wars.
