Time: Ukraine received Phantom MK-1 humanoid robot soldiers for testing.
In February of this year, Ukraine received two Phantom MK-1 humanoid robot soldiers from Foundation for frontline testing, according to Time. The publication notes that these drones can wield any weapon a human can use and are being trained for Pentagon combat missions.
As noted in the article, the robots were sent to Ukraine only to provide reconnaissance on the front lines.
Ukraine, which now launches up to 9,000 drones daily, has become the world's premier testing ground for weapons makers – including Western startups – seeking to automate parts of the traditional "kill chain," the step-by-step process used to identify, capture, and destroy an enemy target.
– Time states.
It is emphasized that Foundation is one of these companies, which wants to bring Phantoms to the forefront in order to hone technology using a "feedback loop" based on real-world use cases.
In an era when adversaries are actively developing defense robots, the United States and its allies must keep up to ensure our technological capabilities continue to expand.
– the developers explain.
They add that the robots developed by the company are adapted to work in military conflict conditions.
