Via: Defense One:

The Army may introduce a drone and robotics platoon into its armored brigade combat teams, an Army leader announced Tuesday at the AUSA Global Force conference.

Ukraine and Russia have used drones since the start of the war. And both sides in the last year have also begun to use ground robots for missions ranging from casualty evacuation to ferrying in supplies to areas under attack.

The U.S. Army currently has two RAS platoons, one in the 82nd Airborne and one experimental platoon in Army’s Maneuver Center of Excellence.
