The Droid TW 12.7 unmanned ground system (UGS), operated by Ukrainian troops from the 3rd Assault Brigade, replaced an infantry position and held it for one and a half months. This was reported by the commander of the NC13 strike UGS company known as "Makar" in an interview with DevDroid.
According to DevDroid, the company that manufactures the robot, such a system can be delivered within 45 days, with a price range of $26,000 to $29,000.
Ukraine's infantry gains a resilient ally
“According to Makar, these deployments lasted one and a half months. During this time, the Droid TW 12.7 successfully completed multiple combat missions, engaging enemy forces,” the company said.
Russian forces were unable to breach the defensive line, as they were continuously under fire from the system.
Makar emphasizes the value of such systems in supporting troops.
“These platforms can assist infantry units, supporting them in offensive operations and covering them during defense. They help reduce the load on infantry soldiers,” Makar explained.
The UGS was officially codified by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine at the end of 2024.
