These drone wolf packs are designed for urban combat and help Chinese soldiers clear areas without risking themselves. I think I read something about a Torment Nexus in there too…

      Like real wolves, members of the robot pack have different roles.

      And

      …, it noted that while the robots were capable of autonomous identification and targeting the system still required human confirmation before a strike.

      And

      Zhang Wei, a scientist from the Intelligent Technology Research Institute of the China Electronics Technology Group Corporation, which is developing the Atlas system, told CCTV that drone swarm development aimed to achieve “coordination without communication”.

      He added that the drones “understood” each other’s intentions and collaboratively accomplished missions even in the complete absence of communication signals.

      Zhang said that highly intelligent, autonomous navigation methods resistant to jamming were needed to achieve “satellite-denied navigation” – the ability to operate when satellite signals are unavailable.

      Dude this is the whole story of

        Well, we are not at the Autonomous-Refueling-From-Biomatter-Stage, yet.
