Needs a quad javelin/HVM launcher and you have your close overwatch capability. Control from Ares (maybe carry on back davit) and fit with a networked RWS. It might be possible to control more than 1 per vehicle as well.

Looks good, following the US approach of developing autonomy for 'logistics'.

Surprised (and a little disappointed) the daily mail haven't caught on with any terminator headlines yet....

Now now, Shark. Don't shame them. Terminator has four syllables, you need to give the Daily Mail time to work that one out. ;)
