RMA has brouth revolution in strategic thinking and battle. BUT IS RMA substitute of human intelligence ?

no I believe this new technology brings dependence and this dependence leads to losses
all the doctrines based on RMA especially infocentric are bound to fail because the more you depend on machines and gadgets the more vulnerable you become

^^ get a machine to build it?

On topic, these are significant advancements but nothing replaces HUMINT or the human factor, not yet.

They once said that strategic bombing would end the need for a foot army. They bombed the heck out of Germany; didn't work very well. So unless one plans to nuke a place and run everything into a giant parking lot, it's still the man behind the machine, the boots on the ground.
