Ukraine sends ground robot to string wire obstacles in open, taking its sappers out of kill zone
Ukraine is using a remote-controlled ground robot to string wire obstacles in open terrain at the front. The job is described as one of the deadliest at the front.
Ukraine, in its war with Russia, is handing one of the front's deadliest jobs, stringing wire obstacles in the open, to a remote-controlled ground robot, according to the outlet Euromaidan Press.
The publication describes the task as among the most lethal at the front. The robot allows sappers, the military engineers who build and clear obstacles and mines, to stay out of the kill zone, where they would otherwise face direct danger.
The source text gives no further details about the robot's model, its manufacturer, where it is deployed or when, so those details are not known.
