Joe Biden is about to inherit a sprawling portfolio of defense innovations funded by his predecessor, most of which are aimed at containing the military challenge posed by China.

One of the most popular ideas, being pursued by all of the armed forces, is to field families of robotic (“unmanned”) warfighting systems.

The Army is experimenting with robotic combat vehicles for conducting ground operations. So far, it likes what it sees. The Air Force is developing a robotic “wingman” called Skyborg that can support manned aircraft in heavily contested airspace.
