60th Separate Brigade adopts UGV from Milrem Robotics capable of destroying aerial targets

The 60th Separate Mechanised Inhulets Brigade has adopted an unmanned ground vehicle for air defence purposes. The system is equipped with artificial intelligence that independently identifies a target, tracks it, and destroys it without human involvement.

Although the announcement does not mention the platform’s name, the Milrem Robotics logo is visible in the video. The company has offices in seven countries and manufactures UGVs. Its THeMIS platforms have been in service with Ukraine since 2022. In autumn 2025, the company committed to delivering more than 150 additional ground-based drones to the country. Their production is organised on a new line in the Netherlands.

Thanks to its interchangeable modules, THeMIS is designed for a variety of tasks, including counter-drone operations. In the video, the brigade – which is part of the Third Army Corps – can be seen engaging targets from a turret.

THeMIS can also be used for logistics and engineering tasks. The combat variant supports 10 modules from various manufacturers, including the Burya robotic turret from Ukrainian company Frontline Robotics. During trials, the system demonstrated accurate target engagement at ranges exceeding 1.1 km.
