Ukraine unveils new series of attack robots with various functions
In order to increase its strength on the front line, the Ukrainian army has tested about 25 new types of robots, with many different functions.
According to Insider, on August 29, Ukraine's Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov said that the country is urgently developing a "robot army" to increase the number of unmanned vehicles on the front line.
"Technology and innovation are the keys to victory. We are testing about 25 types of robots and unmanned vehicles with various functions, from attack robots with automatic turrets to suicide robots," Mr. Fedorov said.
According to military experts, the conflict in Ukraine is an opportunity for fully autonomous combat robots to appear on the front lines. Recently, Kiev has also stepped up investment in unmanned vehicles. Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and suicide boats (USVs) have caused many difficulties for Russia.
On the Russian side, Moscow has announced the arrival of Maker combat robots to Ukraine. These robots are equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) and are designed to deal with Western tanks. In addition, Russia's Lancet suicide UAV has long been a headache for Ukraine's air defense systems.
