Summary
Ukraine’s 13th National Guard Brigade conducted its first all-robot assault, using ground and aerial drones to clear Russian positions in Kharkiv Oblast.
The operation involved surveillance, explosive, and gun-armed robots, demonstrating Ukraine’s advanced military robotics.
While robots excel in surveillance and attack, their limitations in holding ground, particularly against jamming and maintenance challenges, underscore the continued importance of human infantry.
