"Saber", "Scorpion" and "Phantom": how Ukrainian works are fighting instead of the soldiers of the Armed Forces (video)

Some autonomous machines were developed during the ATO period, but most of them appeared after a full -scale invasion of Russia in 2022. During the 23 months of a full -scale war of Russia with Ukraine on the battlefield, a variety of unmanned robotic systems, which replace a person and thus allow the Armed Forces to be preserved without losing the quality of operations performed.

Currently, Ukrainian warriors use many land drones on the front lines, including robotic Turel, reconnaissance unmanned platform, multifunctional land drones, and focus tells them in more detail. "Saber" is a remote-stored combat module of Ukrainian production. Turel acts remotely with the control panel. This allows you to fight at a distance and save the lives of defenders. Turel was designed under 7. 62 mm Kalashnikov machine gun (PKT).

The fire complex is placed in positions with three boxes of ammunition: 250, 450 and 600 cartridges. Saber works on a remote management. Can be connected by network cable or through Wi-Fi. Ukrainian warriors are already using a machine gun "Saber" on the front, installed on an automated "lynx" platform, which transports this machine gun installation. It should be noted that at the end of September 2023, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine was allowed to operate this robotic installation.

The GNIM unmanned robotic platform has multifunctional capabilities. It is intended for observation, intelligence, delivery of ammunition, food and evacuation of the wounded, as well as ensuring increased range of radio communications and management. Due to its small size and almost silent motion, GNOM can monitor a circular survey. Its technical characteristics allow to conduct intelligence at a distance of up to 5 km.

Due to its optimal size and lifting of cargo, it can deliver ammunition and food without unnecessary risks for staff in combat. In addition, GNOM can transport the wounded with a special trolley. An important opportunity of GNOM is its ability to accept, strengthen and transmit a radio signal, which allows it to act as a relay. This opportunity is especially useful when using several GNOMs to build a network of unmanned systems and coordinate units.

Scorpio-2 multifunctional ground drone, which can be an effective means of weakening and damage to the enemy's forces. The technical characteristics of this work include an equipped weight of 750 kg, a width of 1. 2 m, a length of 2 m and a control range up to 2 km. It is equipped with 12. 7 mm machine gun and can shoot up to 2 km from a safe distance for the operator. The robot can be modified for the use of various calibers of weapons, including automatic grenade launchers.

Scorpion-2 may also produce drones that will patrol the territory, identify the enemy's goals and attack them. He can also transport drones-Kamikadze to destroy enemy equipment. The developers have equipped the work with a unique navigation system that enables it to return to the starting position, even if the Russian forces use impulse third -party effects for the "deaf" of the drone.

Scorpio-2 can perform combat missions, such as fire resistance, fighting, logistics, defense and assault, work in both infantry team and other satellite robots, detection and attack. "It is in defensive operations that this thing can help quite much because the management distance-1000-2000 meters, that is, the operator will be in relative security. It is very important for preserving human resource itself," said the representative of the Terland creator, telling journalists about the reporters.

This drone. The equipment was presented by the State Concern "Ukroboronprom", which presented at the Exhibition "Weapons and Security" in October 2016. "Phantom" is a remotely managed minibrontor. The daytime and night aims make it possible to fire at any time of the day at a distance of more than 1 km. The stroke is up to 20 km, control is carried out by protected radio channels or through a fiber cable 5 km long. A little later, a modified version of the land drone-"Phantom-2" was presented.

This robot is built on the basis of a 4-osus chassis, also provides for the equipment of the caterpillars. The stock of the new unmanned car reaches 130 km, speed - up to 60 km/h, the power of the hybrid engine - 80 kW. The total weight is 2. 6 tons. The control is carried out by means of a protected radio channel with a radius of action up to 20 km or through a fiber cable 5 km long.

One of the main distinguishing features is an elongated platform, which made it possible to increase the load and place more powerful combat modules. Delta is a modern online system that allows you to track the battlefield and view the opponent on a digital map in real time. In particular, it collects, processes and displays information about the enemy's forces. The system is used to coordinate the actions of the units of defense forces and planning combat missions and operations.

The platform was developed by the Center for Innovation and Development of Defense Technologies of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine and implemented in the Armed Forces of Ukraine on February 4, 2023. The system can be used on any device, whether a laptop or a mobile phone. It also has means of monitoring suspicious activity and prevention of enemy cyberattacks on the system. "Thanks to Delta soldiers online see the battlefield with the location of enemy forces.

The platform is drawn from aero-intelligence, satellites, drones, inpatient cameras, radars, chats, etc. Delta- an important component in planning military operation Minister of digital transformation Mikhail Fedorov. We will remind, at the end of December 2023 we wrote that the Ukrainian military will receive robotic RCV combat vehicles. The works will be used for tasks such as machine gun shooting, mortar attacks and creation of a smoke curtain.
