Ukrainian special forces units have significantly increased the deployment of ground robotic complexes during military operations, with a recent demonstration of the “Lyut” (Fury) robot showcasing its capabilities on the frontlines of the Sumy region on July 14.
The footage, captured exclusively by HUR, reveals the robot’s precise operation in a hostile environment.
Equipped with a PKT machine gun, the Lyut robot is able to navigate difficult terrain, including areas with fallen trees and craters caused by explosions. As it moves, it maintains a stable connection and continuously transmits video footage to its command post, providing real-time intelligence.
Upon reaching enemy positions, the robot uses its heavy machine gun to unleash a stream of fire, effectively neutralizing Russian occupiers.
The robot’s strategic placement creates a suppression point, allowing other Ukrainian forces to maneuver and advance with greater effectiveness. This new technological asset significantly enhances the operational capabilities of Ukraine’s forces, offering a powerful tool in asymmetric warfare.
The increasing use of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) like Lyut shows the growing reliance on robotics in modern warfare, providing a technological advantage in operations that require both precision and adaptability.
The deployment of these robots plays a key role in Ukraine’s ongoing defense efforts, disrupting enemy positions while reducing the risk to personnel.
Previously, Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense has also officially approved a new domestically developed tracked robotic platform named “Donkey” for operational use in the Armed Forces.
Earlier, it was reported that Ukrainian drones and robots captured Russian soldiers without infantry in a historic operation.
