A Ukrainian UGV has taken three Russian servicemen prisoner, according to the company DevDroid.
Operators of the Droid TW-7.62 robotic system on the NUMO platform remotely detected the Russians and took them captive. Video footage shows three servicemen emerging from cover with their hands raised, removing their gear and lying down on the snow. One of the prisoners appears to have been wounded.
The Droid TW-7.62 is a reconnaissance and strike UGV adapted to carry a KT-7.62 machine gun. Thanks to an integrated ballistic computer, the system delivers high accuracy and fire effectiveness against enemy targets. It is also equipped with artificial intelligence elements for autonomous target detection, acquisition and tracking.
In early January, DevDroid also released video footage showing the evacuation of a Russian captive using the same UGV. That operation was carried out by specialists from the SBU’s CSO “Alpha”.
