Summary / Abstract (Note)much have been written about unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) and occasionally even about unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) but it appears not enough attention bas been paid to unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) even though these have the maximum potential in today's counter insurgency and battlefield applications. UAVs and UGVs have both received a major boost over the last few years thanks to the conflict in Afghanistan. Many new versions have been tested, some rejected and many concepts and operational practices evolved.
