Chinese military reveals drone wolf pack capable of swarm operations — robot dogs can be equipped with grenade launchers and machine guns for urban combat

The Chinese military has unveiled a group of intelligent canine robots, known as a "wolf pack," designed for urban combat. These drones can coordinate with each other, with variants specializing in reconnaissance, logistical support, and combat. Equipped with weapons like grenade launchers and machine guns, these robots can operate at a top speed of 9 mph and carry a payload of 55 pounds. The drones can be controlled through various methods, including voice commands and tactical gloves, and are capable of autonomous identification and targeting but still require human confirmation for strikes. Additionally, the Chinese military showcased anti-drone laser weapons and autonomous boats with AI capabilities for targeting and response.
