Jerusalem Post: New semi-autonomous robot to be deployed to Gaza border
The Jaguar is equipped with dozens of sensors, an automated driving system and advanced fire capabilities.
The IDF’s Gaza division will soon deploy a new semi-autonomous robotic ground vehicle called the Jaguar along the border with the Gaza Strip, replacing soldiers along the border where they could be targets by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
Developed over the past year and half by Israel Aerospace Industries in close cooperation with the technological department of the IDF’s Ground Forces Command, it is currently being integrated into the Gaza division.
The Jaguar is equipped with dozens of sensors, an automated driving system, and advanced fire capabilities. Based on a six-wheeled chassis, it is equipped with a 7.62mm MAG machine gun that can be operated remotely against suspicious objects or people, both while stationary or on the move.

Update: IDF Forces Deploy New Semi-Autonomous Robots To Gaza Border (Zero Hedge)
WNU Editor: The IDF is showing what the future of warfare is going to look like ....
..... During Operation Guardian of the Walls, last month, the IDF relied heavily on robots and machine learning, calling the fighting the first “Artificial Intelligence War.”
“For the first time, artificial intelligence was a key component and power multiplier in fighting the enemy,” a senior IDF officer told reporters in May. “This is a first-of-its-kind campaign for the IDF – we implemented new methods of operation and used technological developments that were a force multiplier for the entire IDF.”

Perhaps we need to wait and see what the overall outcome is going to be before we reach any conclusions. The last time a major conflict in this region was fought was in 2014. It lasted seven weeks and ended in a stalemate. This one is nowhere close to being resolved. Perhaps we need to wait and see what actually transpires before we hail something as the "future of warfare."
With that said this does look promising. Perhaps this will enable Israel to achieve victory this time in a manner that is much more efficient than would have been possible before.
"The last time a major conflict in this region was fought was in 2014."
You suck as a troll. Maybe you should stick to sucking eggs?
Did you just forget the latest fighting between Israel and Hamas. Just because there was not picture of high rises getting blasted or lots of collateral damage real or made-up does not mean there were not a lot of casualties on one side or that its ability to fight was greatly degraded more so than last time.

10X more people were killed in 2014 than 2021. Two points. First, we do not have any idea how many died in the tunnels. Hamas won't admit it. IF it were 500 or 1,000 or some high number, they would look incompetent, which is not a good look if you are a thug. It can get you attacked by other up and coming thugs. Israel might have an idea of the numbers, but they are not telling. It helps them to keep the count low. Hamas does not give up after 200+ people killed, when they lasted to 2,000+ last time. You have your choices
1) They ran out of missiles. Unlikely as Iran gave them a lot.
2) Missiles having limited effect. If they can kill several Israelis a d day although it is harder they would keep it up.
3) Egypt read them the riot act.
4) They got hurt badly and unexpectedly.
Cyber warfare does not have a ton of casualties (at least initially) and yet of someone won big due to cyber warfare it would be a big win piles of corpses or not.
I think you should be like Smeagol's grandma and stick to sucking eggs.
Thank you for the reply even if the insults are unnecessary. What I meant by last time, was the last one which was 2014 as opposed to the current one. The current one obviously seems to be a major conflict.
I think we can agree we really don't know how many people have been killed in the tunnels. Obviously Hamas for its messaging purposes wouldn't be expected to reveal high numbers and perhaps it helps Israel to keep the reported numbers low. With that said, if significant damage and numerous casualties had been bourn on the Arab side there is simply to much leaking among various sources to have kept this secret in my considered opinion.
As of a few weeks ago, Hamas's account was that the tunnels had not suffered much damage. At this point, I would tend to go with what Hamas has said. Based upon the 2006 and 2014 conflicts Israel simply has not had enough time to inflict material damage. Perhaps things have now changed. Maybe the new AI approach has allowed Israel to make quantum leaps forward over their enemies that didn't exist previously. As the enemy will continue improving and adapting as well, this would seem to me to be an extraordinary claim which requires extraordinary evidence of the type that simply hasn't been presented.
I believe my initial point is still valid. It's very premature to declare the current IDF method as the "future of warfare." Very respectfully doing so at this juncture is getting ahead of ourselves. If you want to discuss the article or issues pertaining to it, I am all eyes and will respond as time permits. Insults aren't helpful and contribute nothing of value to the discussion.
Poster you are a McGurkin factory.
If you were not married to the boss's daughter, you'd be sent to the Gulag in Siberia.
Fred see
Hamas unable to learn that they have changed nothing except iran replacing Saudis et al for help
Losing the game?
Change what you are doing
But they have learned. Hamas is aligned with Iran and the Democrats. Just look at all the insane demands made by Democrats against Israel.
What Chamberlain did to Czechoslovakia, Democrats want to do to Israel. Busy little beavers

"This one is nowhere close to being resolved." When I typed this, it should have been clear based upon the context that "this one" is a major conflict. I did not "just forget."
Part of the problem with addressing anonymous posters is it is hard to know just who we are addressing sometimes. It seems as though you are often so eager to jump in with a snarky reply are an ad hominem attack that you fail to properly read the post of the person you are replying to. It is helpful to take the time to read the posts, think about them carefully, if time permits read some of the links the editor supplies, read his analysis, and then post to the comment threads. When done properly, this can be a productive use of time and I often learn much. Ad hominem attacks are counterproductive.
Very respectfully my analysis still stands. It is way to early in this conflict to make a determination as if the current Israeli tactics are the future of warfare. I suggest a wait and see approach. Lets wait until we see how things work out here or, at the very least, we have more information. Then we can make our determination as to the efficacy of the Israeli approach.
Dtupod comment
"Dtupod comment?" Perhaps this is a typo and you meant to say "stupid comment." Was this directed at me? If you are going to accuse someone of making a stupid comment, it helps to point out specifically what was stupid. This way they can learn.
Let's see here. I've been accused of being a troll. I was accused of not understanding that the current conflict Israel is in is a major conflict. Clearly I do understand this is a major conflict as should be obvious from the post. Anon clearly did not fully read my post before replying.
If there is an issue with my comment or that of someone else's, time permitting I am happy to address any of my comments. Simply calling someone stupid without citing the issue is unhelpful and contributes nothing of value.
I will reiterate that which I stated initially. It is way to early in this conflict to determine if Israel is "showing us what the future of combat is going to look like." We have to know the ultimate outcome. Should this turn out like 2006 then I would think that perhaps this isn't the future of combat and if it ends in stalemate with both sides claiming victory as in 2014 then it would hard to say much was actually proven. Wait for the outcome, gather all the necessary information of which there are huge gaps right now, and then we can evaluate the efficacy of how the Israeli methods are working. It's simply to early at this point. I want Israel to win but wanting it alone isn't going to make it so.
Czechoslovakia's "Maginot" line was built mostly in the mountains Sudetenland. When Neville Chamberlain gave Sudetenland to Germany he stripped the border defenses of Czechoslovakia Most of the Benes line was inside Sudetenland.
It appears the Biden Maladministration Israel into giving up the Golan Heights, which is a/the Israeli Maginot Line.
Biden Admin Walks Back U.S. Recognition of Golan Heights as Israeli Territory
Fred knows it is true. He cannot argue otherwise and so he resorted to spare rebuttal of
"Dtupod comment"
Classic Fred.
