For anyone rushing to "It's Terminator 1!" panic, these are all human-controlled. It's the land version of a predator drone, and Russia has them as well.

It's interesting that they always show the one that have a Machine gun mounted on them.

But as with quadcopter drones, they built all sorts of land vehicles to do supply mission, or so.e made to rescue downed UAVs etc..

There was a youtube video of the drone crew running night resupply mission bringing food, drinks and all sort of things to the soldiers on the front. Using huge multi rotor.

Just wanna remind everyone that back in Nov 2025 an injured soldier was rescued by a ground drone after spending 33 days behind enemy lines.

Rules of engagement should be Battlebots only. No projectiles.

If only wars could be fought between these, leaving humans out of it.

Just for the record, kamikaze UGV were used already in WWII.

The US SUV-style aggressive-looking headlight ports are a nice touch.
