Was once working a small squad UAV for house/room recon. Small, hard to see at 
times, easy to camoflage it if needed.
With flight (up/down, and ?) With video/audio and like to send up the side of a 
building or down a hall/narrow street to help with rOom/house/street clearing.

3 on 1st floor
2 on 2nd
10 on 3rd. So in door, take out the 3 and know to expect 12 others.

Hello Johannes, 

a few troops on the ground may be stealthy, but they are also limited
to a small area around the gate. Of course a setting with gates could
function that way -- people live near the gate, and if that area gets
too crowded, they go through the gate to the next world, not over the
hill to the next valley. 

That would also mean that facilities on the other side of the globe 
from the gate are effectively off the map. Nobody "sane" would search
such a large area. (That could explain the impact of the humans in 
the stargate setting -- Earth was fully populated, most other worlds
are just a gate, a town, and a Goa'uld kingpin.)

I like the look-and-feel of the big Traveller ATVs, roughly 35 tons 
and 3,500 cf, but I've written plenty of those for GURPS Traveller. 
So something smaller, but equally rugged.

Regards,
Onno
