These versatile systems, developed by the state corporation Rostec, can be controlled via radio, fiber optics, or fully autonomous mode using electronic maps.
Front-line models include:
▪ Impulse BM-A – fire support robot with automatic grenade launchers;
▪ Impulse-M – logistics transport robot.
Key advantages, according to operators:
▪ High survivability (withstands mine fragments and glancing auto fire);
▪ Excellent cross-country capability (tracked chassis navigates mud, potholes, slopes);
▪ Payload: up to 500 kg on a 30° incline, 1000 kg on level ground;
▪ Towing capacity: 1.5 tonnes (can tow a D-30 howitzer over 3 tonnes);
▪ Control range can be extended by installing a repeater on any UAV, allowing operation tens of kilometers from the command post.
