The Ministry of Defense codified and approved for use in the Armed Forces of Ukraine the Ukrainian-made "D-21" ground-based robotic logistics complex.
Points of attention
- The D-21 robotic complex is designed to perform logistical tasks, including transporting food, ammunition, and the wounded.
- The D-21 operates in manual and automatic modes, has a stable control channel, and can be equipped with a remote combat module.
- The Minister of Digital Transformation previously noted the successful testing of the robot's combat unit and positive feedback from the military.
Ukrainian robotic complex D-21 will go to the front
It is noted that the D-21 unmanned complex was created to perform logistical tasks. It can transport food, ammunition, military equipment, and evacuate the wounded. This complex operates in two modes - manual and automatic, when it moves along a given route at a specified speed.
It has a control channel resistant to radio electronic interference, and the pilot controls the platform from a protected location.
The D-21 is equipped with a silent electric motor and low-pressure all-terrain tires. This gives it high cross-country ability over rough terrain, swamps, and shallow water obstacles. It can also move even after being punctured.
The uniqueness of this complex is that a remote combat module with a machine gun can be installed on the D-21. With this configuration, the robot can perform fire damage or fire support tasks.
This is what the Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, previously said. According to him, the combat unit of the robot has already passed successful tests and has received positive feedback from the military.
The developers plan to integrate NATO weapons into the robot and increase its resistance to enemy electronic warfare. The team is currently working on scaling up production.
