Let loose the dogs of war: Ukraine to deploy ‘Bad One’ along front lines

Ukraine is on the brink of deploying robotic dogs to its front lines, as the country seeks to enhance its military capabilities amidst a shortage of manpower. The innovative machines, known as “BAD One,” are designed to undertake high-risk missions such as reconnaissance and mine detection.
In a recent demonstration held in an undisclosed location within Ukraine, the robotic dog showcased its impressive agility.Responding to remote commands, the robot stood up, crouched, ran, and jumped, displaying capabilities that could prove invaluable in the ongoing conflict with Russia.
The creators of these robotic dogs highlight their potential to perform dangerous tasks with minimal risk to human soldiers. Low to the ground and equipped with thermal imaging, the robots are adept at inspecting enemy trenches and buildings, providing crucial information through infiltration while remaining stealthy.
“We have surveillance soldiers who get sent on reconnaissance missions (who) are most of the time very highly trained people, very experienced people (and) always exposed to risks,” said the operator, who identified himself only as “Yuri” and works for a British military equipment firm. “This dog limits the risk for soldiers and increases operational capabilities. This is the core function of the dog.”
While the more advanced model, “BAD Two,” remains undisclosed for security reasons, the current model has a battery life of approximately two hours. Besides its surveillance functions, the robot dog can carry up to seven kilograms of ammunition or medical supplies to critical areas on the battlefield.
Yuri mentioned that the exact number of robots deployed in Ukraine is confidential, but he assured that their presence will significantly impact military operations and enhance soldier safety.
Additionally, should the robots fall into enemy hands, an emergency switch allows operators to erase all data, ensuring sensitive information remains secure.
