The US Army is accelerating its Automated Ground Resupply (AGR) program by spinning off something called the Expedient Leader-Follower demonstration. Contractors are currently installing Robotic Research LLC’s computer brains and sensors on 10 Oshkosh M1075 PLS (Palletized Loader System) trucks that’ll be used for safety certification tests in 2019. They’ll convert 60 more to self-driving vehicles in time to equip two Army transportation companies in 2020.

No because guys why like getting blow up is in short supply. Should be trivial to remote control a remote weapon station for bonus effect. And yes this is an obvious square bullet weapon, trying to use it against some (non ragheads) who understand electronic warfare would fail amusingly. Still might be useful for mine clearing who is dangerous and patrolling as hitting the robot show its hostiles in area.
Because guys that can drive a truck on dirt roads are in short supply?
