List of fictional military robots

Contemporary discourse about the ethical implications of military robots has been shaped by their portrayal in science fiction. In particular, Isaac Asimov's "Three Laws of Robotics", which set forth basic premises about human-robot relationships in his fictional universe, significantly influenced other science fiction writers and helped to establish many of them as experts taken seriously by military policy makers. The following is a list of fictional works with military robots.
