The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has codified and authorized the use of a domestically produced ground robotic complex, the D-21-12R, equipped with a large-caliber machine gun for deployment in the Armed Forces.
The ministry announced this on its website, Ukrinform reports.
According to the main directorate for support of the life cycle of weapons and military equipment, the D-21-12R is designed for versatile operational tasks, including surveillance, patrolling, providing fire support to units, and neutralizing enemy personnel and lightly armored vehicles.
