The battlefield is massively advancing. In a decade most will be out of a job. Unless they have better skill sets.

The battlefield not quite there yet is faster replacing infantry unless they're dedicated battalions of specialists.

Of course you still need them digging trenches and entrenching defenses, support, and shell and mortar loaders if you're operating older tech.

But it's not much longer before mechanised infantry replaces the conscript.

Although mechs simply can't do everything especially fortify positions captured with active populations.

But modern warfare is changing soldiering. Look at Ukraine for example. As a defender you need far more cannon fodder entrenching. You're defending to the last man. But how much longer before any artillery, drones, even tanks, becomes fully automated. Backed up by mechanised assault. Where you'd still need soldiers are for detailed tactical assessments, defenses, spec ops, and to hold fortifying places with population captured. But isn't it changing quicker.

Not there yet. But sooner. Unless it all kicks off first. Then they get inserted quicker.
