France's armed forces are said to be on track to create a robot army by 2040, with General Bruno Baratz, commander of future combat programs for the French Army, saying they "hope to have something fairly evolved within three years, with the first ground robot capabilities ready to equip our forces".
Despite initially setting the target back in 2021, Baratz suggested the French government are ahead of time and anticipates "deploying evolved systems with practical utility to our combat elements well ahead of 2040".
