Yesteryear's Sci-Fi Is... (#3)

For your peace of mind, just assume I offered up a Terminator reference here, and that it was either exceptionally funny or not depending on your preferences. Now that that's out of the way, let's see what nifty stuff the article says this little machine can do:

  • It can move "undeterred by stairs, rubble, dark alleys, caves or narrow tunnels"
  • It can act "as bomb-sniffing and bomb disposal equipment"
  • And, it can "carry an Uzi machine-pistol or plant a grenade"
