According to Sun Tzu, a Chinese general, military strategist, writer and philosopher who lived in the Eastern Zhou period of ancient China, “The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.”

Robotics is a rapidly growing field of technology with potentially significant applications in the defense sector which can play a significant role in warfare. Nowadays, the United States of America using drones to target enemies in countries like Afghanistan and Pakistan is the best example of the use of robotics in warfare [10]. The United States Department of Defense and countries like China, Russia, and India are developing robots for a wide range of military operations. Artificial intelligence gives robots the ability to make a decision on what to do, how to react, etc. The IoT ensures better connectivity between robots to perform tasks effectively. The combination of AI, IoT and robotics helps to make robots or automatic weapons which can destroy the enemy within a second without losing a single life from our side. To understand the role of AI in robotics first we have to understand the difference between an autonomous system and an automated system. Automated systems are based on computer reasoning that uses clear if–then rules, which are rule-based and return a fixed output for each input. An autonomous system will not return a fixed output for each input, it collects the data through sensors, analyzes the situation, and then takes the decision on action. Its action can vary from situation by situation. All autonomous systems that interact with the world will construct a database which stores arange of behaviors and continuously maintains it.
