Okay people what that article does also mention is that every military planner with brains in his head has already stated that they do not intend to replace soldiers entirely with robots as that would be foolish and stupid, especially since a machine can not handle every situation that a soldier can.
They are planning on using them to augment ground forces, basically they'd be the ones to get shot at first so that human soldiers don't have to be killed in scouting and the like. And if that's true I think a robot soldier controlled by a person is a good idea
