Only skynet army could destroy machines
another variation of the last question
shareSkynet uses lasers/bullets to kill the enemy, sentinels can resist one or two of 30MM ARMOR PIERCING BULLETS, they would easily rip off the terminators, the big flying things would comletely own anything of skynet's flying crap.
Skynet has a hard time fighting humans, 01 does it easily.
a laser can melt the internal circuits of any machine,,in other case skynet could conect to zeroone "internet"and destroy it,in a fight beetween "deux ex machine" and skynet who could win?

You see, Skynet's lasers are pathetic compared to the flying skyscraper's ones, and skynet uses very unneficient propulsion (jet engines? don't make me laugh), while 01 uses anti gravity that doesn't need fuel (maybe external microwave powering?); and a laser needs to pierce the target's armor before fying anything, wich is the sentinel's speciality, and i don't think Deux ex machinae needs internet to check his e-mail...
"To SKYNET, human stubbornness made no sense. They fought when logic told the synthetic intelligence that they were beaten. They relentlessly poured out of the rubble like a bacterial plague, their patterns of counterattack clever and difficult to predict. And humans reproduced at an alarming rate, their sexual appetites evidently fanned high by the threat of total annihilation. Even though it took at least eight years before the human young could be made ready for battle, they were beginning to outpace SKYNET's manufacturing capabilities. And they were quickly learning to find the soft spots in the metal vanguard, decimating SKYNET's army of killing machines. Soon, there would be more human soldiers than non-human. The hyper-computer had miscalculated gravely on something it was still furiously analyzing: human will. So far, it had not come to a conclusion. And the War was grinding into its thirty-first year...."
-Frakes, "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" the novel.
That says a lot about their manufacturing capabilities and weaponry, skynet is so unneficient, that the UN army of TSR2, could have beaten the crap out of the machines, and even a Zion APU would slaughter a lot of machines before the big tank appeared, while an UN APU (wich is smaller, more nimble, has frontal armor and is even capable of fliyng; w00t!), would decimate entire brigades of machines before the big tank appeared!
P.S.:make it a friendly disscusion; I don't know ALL of Skynet's weponry, so, if i missed a point, just tell me...

the slug throwers are around 20mm, not 30, and if a direct hit is scored it will have a very hardtime just withstanging 1 shell
shareYou can see that the sentinels can stand heavy damage, like the one that almost killed the kid in Revolutions.
And in skynet's impressive act of intelligence (nuking without having appropiate factories for it's OWN army), it assured enemy survival.
