"Prometheus is a unique air defense development of the 28th Mech Brigade. It is the world's first air defense system based on a ground robotic platform," reads the comment accompanying the footage, in which Ukrainian defenders introduce their new system.
According to the brigade, such robotic systems are cheaper, simpler, and less conspicuous than traditional air defense systems. This allows them to operate without risking soldiers' lives, representing a genuine breakthrough in protecting Ukrainian skies.
As Defense Express previously reported, Ukraine's special forces have unveiled the Barracuda, a domestically built unmanned boat equipped with artificial intelligence capabilities.
Developed entirely in-house by the Barracuda unit of the 40th Coastal Defense Brigade of the Ukrainian Naval Forces, the vessel is already conducting combat missions in the Black Sea.
