Since the dawn of man, humans have been waging war against each other for various reasons. As technology advances, so do the tactics and strategies employed by those on and off the battlefield. Looking ahead, the future of warfare could take on a whole new persona as augmented soldiers with advanced cybernetics could very well be on the frontlines.
Military vehicles and robots date as far back as WWI with small, remote-controlled and tracked, disposable explosive devices. WWII saw even more innovative designs with the Soviet Army developing full-sized remote-controlled tanks between 1930 and 1940. Even the Brits had a hand in remote controlled tanks with their Matilda MK2 Infantry tank, the ‘Black Prince’.
While nothing compares to modern day military vehicles and autonomous systems, our history is filled with incredible engineering feats. With so many different autonomous military vehicles and systems, we’re only focusing on a few of the standouts.
It’s the UK’s largest regional manufacturing technology, electronics and subcontracting exhibition and a show where you will stumble across thousands of engineering and electronics’ solutions.
The highly acclaimed Southern Manufacturing and Electronics Show was a resounding success in 2013 and according to its organisers, promises to be even better this time around.
Not only can you see the very latest technology, components, materials, products and services currently available, but the Show’s technical staff are always on hand to offer specialist advice that will improve your manufacturing processes, component sourcing, materials selection and overall business efficiency – not to mention your bottom line!
