The Murakha-Mini UGV, developed by Robotic Complexes, is capable of carrying up to 250 kg and is already being used by Ukrainian Armed Forces units, the company reported.

The Murakha-Mini is a compact electric tracked transporter with a range of up to 40 km and a top speed of 15 km/h. The drone is powered by electric motors and batteries adapted for operation in low temperatures.

For stable control, the drone is equipped with a Starlink terminal mounted on a mast together with a surveillance camera. This configuration provides a reliable communication channel even in areas with difficult radio conditions.

The control and communication system supports several channels: ELRS, Ethernet (for connecting to radio networks such as Silvus and Starlink). In addition, it features an optical fibre control mode, which minimises the risk of losing connection and reduces vulnerability to radio interference.

During one of the combat missions, the platform carried 150 kg of cargo and simultaneously towed a six-meter gun carriage, along with another drone and supplies, covering 16 km one way without any operational failures.

It is also worth noting that in June, the Ministry of Defence codified the Murakha ground robotic complex, capable of carrying up to 500 kg of cargo. Furthermore, at an exhibition in Türkiye, Robotic Complexes presented another UGV designed for remote mining operations.
