๐Ÿ”ฅ In Ukraine, a kamikaze ground robot was created for the Armed Forces: how it is used by the military

Brave1 developers have created a new technology for the Ukrainian military - the ground-based kamikaze robot Ratel S. It allows you to hit enemy targets from a safe distance.

This kamikaze robot is capable of carrying anti-tank mines or a combat module at a speed of 24 km/h. In addition, it can travel a distance of 6 km and remotely blow up an enemy tank or dugout.

At the scale of war, something purpose-built like this is helpful because it's customized and standardized for exactly what they want it to do. But if it would really be that helpful for individual acts of terror, I think we'd have seen rudimentary versions by now. If terrorists haven't been using RC cars or rovers already, I don't think this is enough of a jump in tech to make them start.
