The wars of the future will not be fought on the battlefield or at sea. They will be fought in space, or possibly on top of a very tall mountain. In either case, most of the actual fighting will be done by small robots. And as you go forth today remember always your duty is clear: To build and maintain those robots.

robots, satellites, or for that matter fighter jets or artillery can't hold ground, all these units work in support of infantry. the future belongs to what we already have: combined arms warfare

Tell that to the robotic dogs who have a heightened sense of robo-smell and can detect the guy hiding inside the cardboard box

Tell that to the perfume that places the dog instantly in debug mode and allows for remote access and subsequent flooding of the controller local net

Tell that to the special gasmasks the robodogs wear as a countermeasure against the debug mode perfume
