FLYING ROBOTS WITH SHOTGUNS

Let’s face it: there’s only so long you can let your robots stand on the veritable sidelines. After a while, you want ‘em to get in on the action. That’s why, presumably, NRI has started to trick out its “AutoCopters” with 12-gauge, fully-automatic shotguns.

The weapons work with anything from 18-Cal. BBs to armor-piercing, FRAG-12 rounds, according to Defense Review. Which turns the AutoCopter “into an incredibly lethal unmanned combat air vehicle.”
