  • Prolly not.   Not any time soon.   Wars have  always have been won by infantry.   Every other type of unit and weapon is only as useful in how much infantry it aids and how well it aids the infantry.

    How about non-humans then? Robots or machines programmed to do the killing? No bloodshed. Machines are bloodless! Thank you for your reply Glis!   :)

    It would be highly unlikely a drone could take out a combat ship. They could be highly useful for specific target; that is already being done so right now.

    Thank you for your reply Ele. Will wars ever be waged without human involvement except to set the wheels in motion? Let machines do all the killing? Happy Saturday! :). This post was edited by RosieG at April 15, 2017 6:01 AM MDT
