The heavy logistical UGV Protector from Ukrainian Armor was officially codified in June of this year. The drone has already entered mass production and will be supplied to units complete with a trailer, a ground control station, and a mast. Army TV provides<\/a> detailed report on the Protector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protector was developed on the basis of a diesel SUV, taking into account the combat experience of the Ukrainian military. It can perform tasks on any terrain at any time of the year. Its main purpose is to transport ammunition and equipment, and to evacuate the wounded. In addition, the drone can be used as a platform for a robotic combat module, mobile electronic warfare and electronic warfare systems, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually, the operator is not inside the Protector while driving. However, if the need arises, they can sit inside and control it, just like a regular vehicle, with a joystick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
