In June, units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out more than 16,600 logistics and evacuation missions using ground robotic systems (GRS).
This was reported on Telegram by Ukraine’s Minister of Defense Mykhailo Fedorov.
"In June, units of the Defense Forces carried out more than 16,600 logistics and evacuation missions using ground robotic systems. This is 18.6% more than in May," Fedorov said.
According to him, ground robotic systems are increasingly being used today to perform tasks in the most dangerous areas of the front line. They deliver ammunition and food supplies, evacuate wounded soldiers, and carry out logistical missions. Every mission performed by a robot instead of a service member represents a potentially saved life.
The minister noted that for completed missions, units receive ePoints, which can be exchanged through the Brave1 Market platform for drones, ground robotic systems, electronic warfare equipment, and other technologies. This system provides verified data on the effectiveness of robotic systems in combat and enables faster scaling of successful solutions.
"To scale up the use of ground robotic systems at the front, the Ministry of Defense has significantly increased demand and procurement of robotic platforms this year. For 2026, the Defense Procurement Agency has already contracted more than 22,000 ground robotic systems, which are gradually being delivered to the front lines. Contracting continues, and by the end of the year we plan to purchase significantly more robotic systems," Fedorov said.
He also noted that, following a directive from the President, Ukraine continues to strengthen its technological advantage and expand the use of technologies that help preserve the lives of Ukrainian military personnel.
