Ukraine’s armed forces are increasingly using ground drones to gain an edge on the battlefield. These unmanned vehicles are used for various military operations including reconnaissance, direct attacks, mine-laying, ammunition delivery, and medical evacuations.

In a workshop run by Ukrainian specialists, engineers continuously improve these unmanned vehicles, addressing mobility and power issues. The rapid advancement of drone warfare suggests that in the next six to 12 months, the landscape of military technology could change dramatically, making it a race to see which side adapts faster.
