    The inverse square law is not your friend with EMPs. One of these robots armed with a Browning machine gun can attack you from a mile away. To fry the robot’s electronics with an EMP at that distance you’d basically need to use a nuke.

    On the one hand, good for Ukraine. Every Ukrainian like lost to this war is a tragedy.

    On the other robo warfare is going to enable a new era of oppression on the masses.

    Protestors acting up and your security forces won’t shoot them? Robots will.

    Opens up interesting new frontline roles, like scavengers that collect fallen soldiers to be recombined into working units.
