Vietnam produces combat robots comparable to Russia

The actual situation in Syria has shown the increasingly important role of battlefield robots deployed by Russia.

It is predicted that in the near future, autonomous combat robots will gradually replace the role of soldiers in the most dangerous positions.

World powers have realized the power of this weapon and are pouring money and brainpower into quickly mastering the technology.

Faced with the above trend, Vietnam cannot be left out. Most recently, in the People's Army section, a multi-purpose autonomous robot for combat and reconnaissance on the ground, researched and manufactured by the Institute of Technology - General Department of Defense Industry, was introduced.

Multi-purpose combat robot researched and manufactured by Vietnam.

This is a self-propelled robot created by applying new scientific and technological achievements in the world with the integration of weapons and equipment in the establishment.

This robot is controlled via computer and has the function of transmitting data to the command center via electro-optical camera.

The product consists of two main parts: the command center and the robot autonomous device. The command center is where the map is stored, observation information is collected and control commands are given to the attached devices. The autonomous device can run on a predetermined route according to the digital map.

In addition, the robot's network communication system is secured by a highly secure encryption algorithm.

The first multi-purpose combat robot version researched and manufactured by Vietnam is integrated with an Uzi rapid-fire submachine gun with a silencer, which can play a good role in anti-terrorism and hostage rescue.

Some other types of automatically controlled weapons are researched and manufactured by the Institute of Technology - General Department of Defense Industry.

The success of the first version is the premise to help the officers and engineers of the Institute of Technology move towards manufacturing generations of multi-purpose combat robots possessing many superior features and stronger firepower.

In the photo above, we can clearly see the 12.7mm heavy machine gun and the SA-16 shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile mounted on a remote-controlled platform. The prospect of integrating them onto a large chassis to create tanks or self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicles comparable to prototypes such as the Uran-9 or Russia's Boomerang is probably no longer too far-fetched.
