The Murakha is a tracked robotic platform designed to support frontline units in challenging conditions — under enemy fire and in mined areas.

Thanks to its compact dimensions, the Murakha ranks among the leaders in payload capacity. It can carry over half a ton of cargo across distances of tens of kilometers.

Its multiple control channels enable operation in areas exposed to enemy electronic warfare systems. The UGV’s high mobility allows it to traverse difficult terrain and cross shallow water obstacles.
