The US Army has been using autonomous robotic soldiers for years now, they just aren't humanoid.

It is not as if there is something magically american about these robots. Other nations can and do build their own military robots. Also, they are not cheap. They, as of now, require personnel to operate. I wouldn't worry about an army of autonomous robot soldiers. Save that for the movies.

Yes but I remember when computers weighed 16 tons.. today people stick a better one than that in their ear....
