Quote: "The Ratel S is a ground robot created by Ukrainian developers. Fighters use it as a mobile warhead that carries anti-tank mines or a combat module. Thanks to the technology, the operator can blow up an enemy tank or dugout from a safe place," Fedorov said.

The maximum speed of such a technology is 24 kilometres and its range of use is 6 kilometres. The technology can work up to two hours without recharging. Ratel S has successfully passed field testing and has been put into serial production.

For reference: Brave1 is a cluster for the development of military technologies in Ukraine, founded by Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation, the Defence Ministry, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the National Security and Defence Council, the Ministry of Strategic Industries, and the Ministry of Economy.
