Instead of sending in platoon after platoon of soldiers to clear an objective, in the future Armed Forces could send in swarms of small UCAVs, every soldier could even individually operate or monitor their own Micro UAV and be in the battle "virtually," each platoon represented by a swarm. They could enter the town in mass, and not only recon it, but if the operator 'sees' an enemy threat they can just fly the UAV over to that threat and detonate a fragmentation charge inside. Such a capability would drastically decrease the dangers of urban warfare, and when used in a non-urban environment there would really be nowhere for the enemy to hide.
