RE: Robotic Armies - AI, Drone Warfare and the Future of Combat

Not just terminator, we can very well see mechs enter the battlefield in a next-gen sluggest between superpowers. Maybe not like gundam wing or liger zero but there are exosuits both large and small scale that civillian engineers are building and experimenting with... DARPA is already fielding both manned and unmanned robotics (remember the SR-71 blackbird wasnt made public for 20 years after its inception) but I dont think they'll be cost effective unless we get into a conventional-war scenario, that tech is too valuable to risk losing it in an asymetrical conflict.
