Like the Gepard? Hard to cover a large area with that kind of defense, and I assume it could also be overwhelmed with a swarm attack.
Automate it, and build so many they are cheap. Swarm attacks can work but we are learning how to counter them as well
Fair enough. I guess we'll be seeing it play out one way or another.
It's fascinating, but I'm not thrilled to see automated weapon systems proliferating like this. At least some soldiers have a good sense of morality and the ability to say no.
