Ethical issues related to “ unmanned military robots ” that are expected to have great results have long been the subject of debate. Mike Ryder, associate part-time lecturer at the University of Lancaster's philosophy department who is familiar with war ethics, etc., explains the ethical issues facing military robots.

The concept of ' military robots ' in the United States is not new. According to the origin, Ryder claims that the 'proximity fuse' developed during World War II is 'a kind of' robot ''. Proximity Shinkan is able to burst the cannonball and damage the target if it lands within a certain range without landing on the target. There are a lot of robotic technologies like proximity fuzes, so Ryder claims that 'military robots are already being used in war.' Then, what should we discuss now? 'Why use military robots?' And 'How do you operate?' Furthermore, 'If it is used, how humans relate to military robots Mr. Ryder says, 'should I?'

Modern military robots began to be developed in 2003. In 2003, the US Department of Defense developed a bomb handling robot with a firearm called ' SWORDS '. It was put into practice in Iraq in 2007, but SWORDS will not be deployed due to a defect. The failure of SWORDS brought US military robot research down, but on the other hand, ethical discussions about military robots have become a hot topic. In 2012, President Barack Obama at that time formulated ' 300.09.09 ' of the US Department of Defense Directive, which describes how to handle military robots.

Early military robots were supposed to be controlled by humans to the end, but next-generation aircraft such as military drones are to operate without human control. Because military drones are unmanned drone for passengers, they can reduce military costs such as the risk of pilot life. Drone military action has always been controversial, but politically, it's a lot less criticism than military action, and says Ryder.

With regard to the 'human role' in unmanned military robots, Ryder is 'monitoring unmanned military robots as an operator.' However, it is also true that the unmanned military robot can kill the enemy regardless of whether the operator is present or not, '' the unmanned military robot automatically kills the enemy 'and' the military robot with the operator kills the enemy. 'What difference is there?'

Furthermore, Ryder pointed out that 'human beings have become' alibi 'and' ethical cover 'for military robots. The presence of the operator is 'an excuse to monitor the movement of the military robot and to appeal to the world that the robot is not in an unmanned state,' since modern military robots require almost no human hands. is. With regard to this situation, Ryder commented, 'It may be comforting to think that the action of the military robot is due to human commands. However, in practice the unmanned military robot has already been used. You have to admit the facts before you criticize.
