FUTURE WARFARE | Land - Unmanned Ground Vehicles — From Logistics Mules to Front-Line Robots
Ukraine fielded 15,000 unmanned ground vehicles in 2025 — surpassing its own procurement targets by over 100 percent. A single UGV held a front-line position for 45 days. Up to 90 percent of supplies to Pokrovsk now move by robot, not truck. The U.S. Army cancelled its $3 million Robotic Combat Vehicle and is starting over. China is deploying $3,000 robot dogs in PLA urban-warfare exercises. This article maps the emerging UGV battlefield — from Ukraine’s garage-built logistics fleet to the Pentagon’s stalled combat-vehicle ambitions, and from Ghost Robotics’ Vision 60 to the quadruped proliferation problem no treaty has yet addressed.
Robot Talk Episode 150 – House building robots, with Vikas Enti
In a recent conversation, Claire spoke with Vikas Enti, co-founder and CEO of Reframe Systems, about the innovative use of robotics and automation in constructing climate-resilient, high-performance homes. This discussion highlighted how Reframe Systems, a company focused on physical AI, is transforming traditional building methods through advanced automation and localized fabrication techniques. Enti, who brings over ten years of experience from his tenure at Amazon Robotics, emphasized the importance of these technologies in addressing the challenges posed by climate change. The dialogue underscored the potential for automation to not only enhance the efficiency of home construction but also to create structures that can withstand the increasing impacts of environmental stressors.
