According to Fedorov, the UGVs were tested on difficult terrain: with potholes, barriers, fallen trees, springboards, sand, a ditch with water and under the influence of electronic warfare.
The UGVs were tested for water resistance, speed, braking characteristics, noise level as well as cross-country ability in difficult terrain too.
