The Ministry of Defense told about promising engineering technology
According to Alahverdiyev, the command is to complete the re-equipment of the engineering troops in an extremely short time. For this, the process of adopting technology was maximally accelerated: the products put into service were immediately purchased, and deliveries began in a short time.
The Colonel called “robotic samples of engineering weapons” the most promising direction. The Uran-6 small-class minesweeper robot has already been included in the existing equipment, R&D is underway to create two more robots - "Dolomit-1" (for assault and barrage) and "Dolomit-2" (middle-class minesweeper capable of remotely clearing anti-tank minefields). Small robotic complexes are also accepted for supply - therefore, the command cooperates with the SET-1 company in the direction.
In addition, next year exoskeletons will begin to arrive in the army, allowing a soldier without super efforts to carry 50 kg of cargo. Another innovation is the sapper's backpack, designed to carry explosives, mines, explosives.
The new equipment in the first place will be received by the fighters of the assault and looting divisions. Such units (battalions) will soon appear in every military district. Also formed units of the use of robotic technology.
Alahverdiyev added that today there is a new trend in the troops: the reduction of personnel engaged in maintenance of equipment, due to robotization, automation and process unification.
