Yep, Iran’s proxies have killer ground robots.

The video shows two remotely-operated ground vehicles moving and firing their weapons. One has a 7.62 mm. PKM machine gun, and the other packs a heavier 12.7 x 108 mm. DShK machine gun.

It’s not hard to spot who’s responsible. Prominent flags with the symbol of Saraya Al Salam  - or the Peace Brigades  -  fly from each robot. The group is a Shi’ite militia with close ties to Iraqi cleric Muqtada Al Sadr.

During the brief video,(9.21min) an operator moves and remotely fires the robots’ weapons by way of a tablet computer. The PKM-armed robot also has an extendable arm, which appears to probe into the ground — presumably demonstrating its ability to inspect improvised explosives.
