The Ministry of Defense reported the information.

They noted that CRAB-LS is designed to perform primarily logistical support tasks. This includes the delivery of necessary supplies, ammunition, equipment, and evacuation of the wounded. 

In addition, CRAB-LS can be used to install combat modules and as a carrier in dangerous areas. The complex has a silent high-traction electric motor and all-terrain tires that allow it to overcome sand mounds, marshlands, shallow ditches and obstacles. 

“CRAB-LS systems are already performing various tasks in the Defense Forces. They have evacuated dozens of wounded and delivered tens of tons of cargo (ammunition, provisions) in the area of intense hostilities, saving the lives of many soldiers,” the ministry said.

In addition, there is an example of the platform being used as a ground-based kamikaze drone, the Defense Ministry added.
