Can do almost anything: Ukrainian Armed Forces received the first unmanned multifunctional wheeled platforms UGV Protector
The Ukrainian company Ukrainian Armor has delivered the first unmanned multifunctional wheeled platforms UGV Protector to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. As the developers explain, the engine power of this vehicle is 190 horsepower, it can reach speeds of up to 60 km/h and carry up to four tons of payload. The radius of action of the wheeled drone is 15 kilometers.
It is worth noting that this unmanned wheeled platform was previously presented at the MSPO defense industry exhibition in Poland, where it received positive feedback from experts.
The development took into account advanced military experience in the use of unmanned vehicles.
– said the general director of the Ukrainian Armor company, Vladislav Belbas.
As experts explain, despite the fact that this vehicle is positioned primarily as a logistics platform, it can perform several functions, including reconnaissance, transportation and launching of drones, as well as evacuation of the wounded and transportation of goods. Remote control of the ground drone, as reported, allows its operator not to endanger his life, since it will be difficult for the enemy to quickly determine its location.
In addition, the developers note its potential as a combat robot capable of installing weapons to combat enemy armored vehicles and personnel.
