In Russia, for the first time, a group of shock robotic complexes "Marker" was tested. During the tests at the test site, robots independently, without human participation, made decisions on entering firing positions.

Three interstate standards for such a relatively new industry as extreme robotics will be developed by scientists of the All-Russian Research Institute for Civil Defense and Emergency Situations (VNII GOChS) EMERCOM of Russia. This information was announced at the first international scientific and practical conference of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia on the development of robotics Roboemercom.

Russia conducted field tests of the Marker shock robots, which operated in an autonomous group without human participation, a source in the military-industrial complex told RIA Novosti.

Two months ago, in August 2021, the first batch of "environmentally friendly steel" arrived at the Volvo plant, and the other day the first vehicle was made from it. Thus, the company demonstrated its commitment to the chosen course, according to which by 2050 all its production will be transferred to the use of new material. Volvo became the first organization in the world to master its application for practical purposes.

After leaving the Earth's atmosphere, space objects remain without any technical support, but this situation may change in the coming years. After a successful experiment in space towing, the United States intends to create full-fledged refueling satellites that prolong the life of objects in orbit.

Roscosmos will place special emphasis on preventing threats related to unmanned aerial vehicles

The robotic security platform "Marker" has been tested at the Vostochny cosmodrome in the Amur region. This is a step towards the introduction of automated security control at a secure facility that does not depend on the human factor, Dmitry Rogozin, Director General of Roscosmos, told reporters on Thursday.

General Dynamics Land Systems has presented a mock-up of the TRX ground robot, which will act as a carrier of kamikaze drones. In addition to them, he received a quadcopter.

China has already defeated the United States in an arms race using cyber capabilities, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI), The Drive reports a statement by former Pentagon software director Nicholas Chaillan.

Four-legged drones can push snipers on the battlefield. On October 13, Ghost Robotics and SWORD Defense Systems presented a joint development - a sniper fire system for the Vision-60 robot at the US Army Association (AUSA 2021) exhibition.

The robot can detect and intercept violators, as well as counter terrorist attacks and fight drones

The General Director of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin showed a video of patrolling the territory of the Vostochny cosmodrome by the Marker robot.

The American companies Ghost Robotics and S.W.O.R.D. Defense showed a combat robot based on the four-legged robot Vision-60. It is equipped with a rifle with a range of 1.2 kilometers and a thermal imager.

Innovators of the branch of the Military Academy of Logistics (Penza) have developed a robotic diagnostic complex of technical intelligence.

The American company Ghost Rorotics has presented a prototype of a four-legged combat robot SPUR, armed with a high-precision sniper rifle from Sword International. SPUR stands for "unmanned special purpose Rifle" (Special Purpose Unmanned Rifle) and is presented as "the best friend of the Special forces".

The Australian Space Agency has signed an agreement with the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to create a rover for exploring the surface of the Moon, which is scheduled to be sent in 2026, NASA announced on its website on Tuesday.

Russia's development of weapons systems is a forced measure due to the actions of the United States. This was stated on October 11 by Acting Deputy Director of the Department for Nonproliferation and Arms Control of the Russian Foreign Ministry Konstantin Vorontsov, speaking at the First Committee of the UN General Assembly.

The infantry Division of the South Korean Army and the Hanwha Defense company have begun testing the Intelligent UGV reconnaissance ground robot with a six-by-six wheel formula. According to Aju Daily, the military will check how the car functions in unmanned mode and with remote control.

In the interests of the Ground Forces, experimental design work is underway aimed at developing promising heavy and medium-class robotic complexes.

The aircraft is capable of performing long-range radar detection and control functions

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) capable of performing the functions of a long-range radar detection and control aircraft (AWACS) has been developed in Russia. This was announced on Sunday on the TV channel "Zvezda" by the general designer of JSC "Kronstadt" Nikolay Dolzhenkov.

At the Vostochny cosmodrome, they began testing the Marker robotic security platform. This was reported by the press service of ROSCOSMOS.

The latest small arms of the Russian army were tested by special forces soldiers of the armed forces of Pakistan during the joint Russian-Pakistani exercise "Friendship-2021" at the Molkino training ground in the Krasnodar Territory, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported.
