As a Russian commando force approached a Ukrainian defensive position on a frontline in eastern Donetsk, they encountered an unexpected opponent: a combat robot equipped with a flamethrower. According to the chief engineer of Ukraine's 93rd Independent Mechanized Brigade, when the Russian army took positions near the woods, the robot began to act, turning the dry summer meadows around them into a “sea of fire.” Subsequently, the Ukrainian military machine gun team launched an attack to eliminate the surviving attackers. The robot, which was deployed “in the direction of Dobropilia” in August last year, is part of Ukraine's growing unmanned ground vehicle force. These vehicles are equipped with weapons ranging from rifles to rocket-propelled grenade launchers. Ukraine's goal is to produce at least 50,000 such robots this year to be used on the battlefield to enhance the combat effectiveness of human forces against the Russian army.
