#Ukraine approves new #Murakha ground robot for combat use
Murakha is tracked #robotic platform to support front-line units working under challenging conditions, such as under enemy #artillery & in heavily mined terrain
Its larger size makes it one of Ukraine’s leading #UGVs in terms of load capacity. It can reportedly carry over 1/2 a ton across dozens of kilometers. It can also cross difficult terrain and shallow water.

Since #Russia’s invasion two years ago, #Ukraine has revolutionized warfare with its use of #drones in the #air and at #sea. Now it wants to do the same with unmanned ground vehicles, or #UGVs, aiming to replicate the low-cost, do-it-yourself approach that it has used to such deadly effect. #UGV
