I say they are half way there to err.. "Drones"

I was using an example

Our Traffie boats have most of our missiles IIRC.
True, but I don't know if the MoD would think outside the box in regards to putting LAMs on a carrier, but perhaps cost cuts will inspire them somehow. At the moment though it mainly seems to be a case of 'do more with less'.
They're well on their way to ground drones, although I'd say that rather than exoskeletons, I'd say that the drones they'd use instead of humans would be that dragonfly helicopter thing that I think Steamwake posted a while back, it can get in through windows and doors and if they get it to carry a payload or a micro-MG then it could be a fairly formidable weapon, although perhaps prone to being batted out of the air.
