Russia launched mass production of combat robots, the country's Defense Minister Sergey Shoygu said on Friday.

"There are no longer just experimental prototypes but robots that can really be shown in science fiction films when they are able to fight autonomously," Shoygu said, speaking at a conference, New Knowledge.
He added that "great work is being done on creating the weapons of the future."
New Knowledge is an educational three-day conference, organized to share the best knowledge about the biggest Russian and world's achievements and people behind them.
