Defense Ministry will adopt three robotic complexes in 2018
The Russian Defense Ministry plans to adopt the Uran-6, Scarabay and Sphere robotic complexes in 2018 year. The complexes are in demand in the engineering troops, said the head of the engineering troops of the Russian Armed Forces, Lieutenant-General Yuri Stavitsky.
He explained that all the above complexes were tested and tested in combat conditions in the Syrian Arab Republic.
The Uran-6 robot sapper is a tracked self-propelled radio-controlled mine sweep. Depending on the tasks that are assigned to the complex, it can be equipped with up to 5 various trawls, as well as dozer dumps. The operator can control the complex at a distance of up to 1000 meters (the device has 4 video cameras that provide all-round visibility). The Uran-6 robotic deminer complex is able to detect, identify and destroy any explosive item with a command that does not exceed 60 kg of TNT. In this case, the robot ensures complete safety of personnel. The “Uran-6” ammunition found on the ground neutralizes either by destroying them physically or by putting them into action. The weight of the armored sapper is rather big - about 6-7 tons, depending on the configuration. At the same time, the robot is equipped with an 190-strong engine, which provides it with a fairly high power density - about 32-37 hp. per ton. A sapper robot with an 1,4 meter height is able to overcome obstacles up to an 1,2 meter height.
The robot looks more like a children's radio-controlled toy. Control of its movement is carried out from the console using a proportional two-axis joystick. The “Scarab” complex is designed for operative collection of audio and video information in areas that are difficult of access and dangerous for humans, and then transmitted via radio to a video surveillance and remote control console. It includes a controlled inspection platform and a remote control with an integrated video surveillance system. Managed inspection platform "Scarab" is a movable wheel or track base, which is equipped with high-definition video cameras, a microphone, a thermal imager and a transmitter of audio and video information over the air. Radio transmission ensures stability and high image quality, even under poor signal propagation conditions. The observation range with the transmission of video information over the radio channel to the video surveillance and remote control (on the ground) is at least 250 meters. Hours at least 120 minutes.
The wireless inspection device “Sphere” is able to conduct a circular review (360 degrees) of the terrain and ensure the transmission of video information online with a fully charged battery of at least 60 minutes without the backlight turned on at a distance of at least 50 meters. Information is transmitted over the air; the power source is a replaceable Li-PO rechargeable battery. In addition, this device maintains its performance after a free fall from a height of at least 3-meters. Examination wireless device "Sphere" is designed for the rapid collection of video and audio information in places that may be dangerous or difficult to access. The collected information is transmitted over the air to the remote surveillance and remote control device. The Sphere itself is a small ball equipped with four video cameras with LED backlighting, a microphone and a transmitter of the collected information. This device in the form of a ball is designed to be thrown by employees of special services and police in remote areas to assess the situation. In automatic mode, always takes the vertical position. It has a unique ability to transfer video from four of its cameras at once without losing its quality.

During the performance of tasks in Syria using robots, the engineering staff has gained some experience, which is currently being implemented in the development of new promising means of engineering weapons
