Canadian ground robot survives Atlantic drop, crawls back to shore

So the Rheinmetall Argo Mission Master is now amphibious. It can be dropped over the side, find its way to shore and crawl up the beach.
Sounds like a neat SAR/MAJAID capability.

In the 1980s the 7th Infantry Division was designated a Light division and equipped with dune-buggies, Chenoweths IIRC.
Now it seems that somebody figures a similar stripped down platform makes a valid base for an AI RWS turret. it would retain a "man-in-the-loop".
Question: What fitness level is required of the person operating/controlling/supervising such a system?

11 months on the BMW line
30,000 vehicles,
90,000 sheet metal parts
1250 hours of run time
200 miles covered in the factory
Their primary task involved lifting sheet-metal parts from bins and placing them on welding fixtures with a 5-millimeter tolerance. After placement, traditional robotic arms performed the welding. The humanoids handled metal loading with a cycle time of 84 seconds, including 37 seconds for the load. Accuracy stayed above 99 percent, the firm stated in the press release.
