Autonomous cars are now popular, not only in the passenger car market but in the military industry as well. Not long ago, the United States Army had tested a Humvee "Wingman" truck without a driver who could help the army when caught in a dangerous situation on the battlefield.

Amazingly, the "Wingman" Humvee has a 50 caliber machine gun that can accurately identify and shoot targets. The military car has an automatic regulatory system that makes it possible to communicate with command vehicles and control centers in the vicinity. In last year's shooting exercise, the Humvee car can recognize targets by using target vision-based auto detection and target selection. In the program "Wingman", a command vehicle and with three soldiers always accompany the vehicle without a driver. The driverless Humvee will act as a supporter of the robot truck while firing.

The US Army has even used this armed robot in the Iraq War in 2003 and in other battles. Previously, the US Air Force has also used unmanned aircraft that is MQ-9 Reaper to run various military missions such as surveillance and assault to the target enemy.Thanks a lot, for taking time to read this.
