I wonder how bulletproof that thing is.A few more... Note the offensive payload on the lead robot.
Is there a hand cranking generator built in? When the group stops to take a break, the human soldiers must "feed" their buddies to keep them going, like in the good old days.A few more... Note the offensive payload on the lead robot.

As much as what they paid for which probably not a lot because any kind of thickness for protection would be heavy and affect performance which is more important. My question is how much does it last because they're mainly for logistical purposes so how far does it go before a recharge? The US army cancelled development of their version because "It didn't meet their requirements" which means it probably doesn't have a lot of endurance out in the field. I think theirs was also gas powered which from what I saw on a clip made a lot of noise.
According to the news it can carry up to 160kg of good and can travel 10km/h, so base on this info maybe we can come up with what type of payload it is capable of carrying ? Also, it is possible for this thing to get some sort of APS on top and act as an type of anti artillery defense measure ? since it can move along the infantry and can sit in a trench or behind cover
finally, the first time I saw this thing showed by Boston dynamics I thought “it’s a suitable way to equip your infantry with some nice .50 machine guns”, it even comes with a tetrapodA few more... Note the offensive payload on the lead robot.

Yak bot could be used offensively? They should test deploy them on the border area.
Cow bot?
If they dress it up as a cow the Indians won't shoot at it. Brilliant!
