What we are buying

11 rescue and 9 combat vehicles

Engineers of the Lava regiment will upgrade them in their workshops. They will be faster and spend less time under fire. Every mission of a ground robot saves the lives of soldiers.

  • Rescue and supply UGVs
  • Robotic buggies
  • Gear for operators and engineers

The main idea

Two is better than one

  • ×2

    One mission is good — two are better

    A fast ground robot can go out twice as often while the window for action is open. The chance to act does not last long, so speed matters.
  • ×2

    Fast is good — twice as fast is better

    An upgraded robot spends half as much time in danger. Less time under fire means more chances to bring people back.
