Ukraine’s robot army advancing on the war’s front lines
The Ukrainian military is increasingly using ground robots to replace dangerous frontline tasks. President Volodymyr Zelensky ordered the deployment of at least 50,000 unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) by 2026, citing their potential to save soldiers' lives. Ihor Shmyryov, head of the UGV department at Brave1, anticipates significant progress in this initiative.
