With a good face: how the Russian engineering troops are being robotized

Unmanned platforms have been developed for Russian sappers for any task

Robotization is becoming the main direction of the development of technology used by sappers — such a conclusion can be drawn following the results of the Day of Innovations of the Engineering Troops, which was held on April 12 at the Karbyshev Military Engineering Academy. At the event, manufacturers presented a wide range of ground-based drones. They should make the work of sappers safer and more efficient, whose profession is considered one of the most dangerous among military specialties.
