In this scenario after years of development the DOD unveils a new ground fighting force. An all robotic infantry force with AI control. These new infantry units are the size of the average American Soldier. Have 3 times the strength of a normal human male. Can run at 40 mph. Can only be taken out by Ballistic rounds in excess of 50 caliber and can think and react faster than any human. They are powered by an advanced energy cell with 24 hours of active combat time. And the units share data with one another via an encrypted link to make them more effective in combat zones. The DOD is mass producing these units bringing to total cost for 2 Million Robots to 25 Billion Dollars total.
How would the creation of this new robot force affect current and future conflicts? How would the EU, Russia, China and other countries react to the new units. How would current US Infantry react to their eventual replacements?
Special Note: The Energy Cells that power the Robots are modular. When the Bot is running low on juice it can have the cell removed and replaced with a new energy cell in the field. The Robots carry the same amount of ammo as your average infantry grunt. And use the same weapons. The Robots look Similar to T-600s
