Not near future but in the foreseeable future (Earliest 50-75 years)
Robots aren't advanced enough right now, they are however in the initial stages of testing a rescue robot, that would be able to carry wounded soldiers to safety.

Not anytime soon, there will be and already are some robots, but someone needs to control them. Convoys will be robots and one human driver leading them all. I've watched "New Technology of War" on the Military Channel. They are doing SO much to improve human soldiers they won't replace them with robots until in a hundred years or so.

What we are utilising on the instant at the instant are not robots, yet remotely operated gadgets. vast distinction. i think of it is going to be a protracted time before you are able to build a device it somewhat is as adaptive to at as quickly as changing circumstances because of the fact the human recommendations. a working laptop or computing device is constrained with the aid of that is programming; as much as now no computing device has been built that even comes on the ingredient of being waiting to think of creatively. it somewhat is mandatory to a wrestle solider. What you will see is extra machines on the battlefield operated from a distance for issues like scouting and explosive ordinance disposal. Down the line you may see genuine robots coping with issues like shifting components alongside GPS-plotted routes or perhaps coping with artillery fires. yet it somewhat is years away.

Many robots are already used by the military. They disarm IEDs, do servailence, spy, and many other uses. The one thing we haven't done yet is to put our trust in a robot with a machine gun and hope it can tell the differece in us and the enemy.

No time soon.
Even if you don't take into account the enormous expense, the technology and AI isn't nearly good enough to replace the common foot soldier.

Maybe in the future, but certainly not near future.

I'm sure the government ultimately plans to replace EVERYBODY with robots. How else can the government ensure it will remain in control?

I read that the US is combat-evaluating a new cybermule - heavy weapons platform for infantry squads.

No matter how good technology gets, it's nothing without a human element.
