The developer called Russia a leader in the creation of combat robots
Among the examples of the most promising foreign projects in the field of combat robotics, Ostapchuk cited the program for lung robotization renewed in 2017 by the British BAE Systems tank Black Knight, whose tactical and technical characteristics are comparable with the Russian reconnaissance and combat robot "Uranus-9". At the same time, the agency’s interlocutor emphasized that while the British company had just presented the layout of its robot tank, the serial production of Uraniums has been established over the past few years.
The developer added that with the weight of "Uranium-9" in 11 tons, the robot has compact dimensions - two times less than BMP or BTR. At the same time, the unmanned vehicle surpasses the armored vehicles of this class in composition of armaments and combat capabilities.
