The Ministry of Defense has codified and authorized the use of the domestically produced ground robotic complex D-21-12R, equipped with a large-caliber machine gun, in the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
As noted by the department, the ground robotic complex is equipped with a large-caliber machine gun. It is capable of performing a wide range of tasks, including surveillance, patrolling, fire support for our units, targeting enemy personnel and light-armored vehicles, and more.
The complex has high off-road mobility, capable of navigating through rough terrain, swampy areas, and shallow water obstacles. The operator controls the actions of the ground robotic complex while remaining in a protected shelter at a significant distance.
