The purpose of the demo was to validate and verify the UGVs’ capabilities stated by developers.
”The best option for the soldiers in the field would be a versatile robotic platform, on which weapon systems could be mounted/dismounted as needed; and which could easily be converted for other tasks,” said AAF Commander, Lieutenant General Yevhen Moisyuk.

Combat capable UGVs are included for procurement into the Government Defense Acquisition Contract 2021.
