The press service of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry reports.

When designing the transporter, the developers took into account the requirements based on the combat experience of Ukrainian defenders, the Defense Ministry noted.

"The ground robotic complex has a low silhouette, is low-noise and low-visibility, and is protected from bullets and debris. In addition, the vehicle is easy to operate and maintain in the field. In terms of driving characteristics, it has high cross-country ability and traction," the military said.

Remotely controlled by the operator, the universal multipurpose transporter can deliver ammunition and provisions. A multifunctional platform with special mounts installed on it is capable of evacuating the wounded. In addition, it can be used to carry out mine clearance with the help of attachments. Or vice versa - to set up minefields.

The Defense Ministry notes that the ground robotic complex can also become a mobile firearm, as it is possible to integrate remotely controlled combat modules equipped with grenade launchers and machine guns. The transporter can also be used as a kamikaze drone. Thanks to its wide tracks with large tracks and a protective bumper, the robot can overcome off-road terrain, ditches, and shallow water obstacles. It can carry about 200 kg of cargo or pull a trailer of the same weight.
