Denys Shmyhal: In 2025, the military’s request for ground robotic systems was fully met
In 2025, the Defence Procurement Agency of the Ministry of Defence surpassed its planned targets for the supply of ground robotic systems. The deliveries exceeded 100% of the Armed Forces’ orders.
“The development and scaling of ground robotic systems form part of a systematic, human-centric defense approach, in which technology is focused on what matters most—protecting personnel and improving the effectiveness of combat missions,” emphasized Denys Shmyhal.
An additional support instrument is the DOT-Chain Defence digital platform, through which military units received 62 ground robotic systems. This format enables the rapid fulfillment of specific needs and the swift scaling of effective solutions.
Currently, orders for ground robotic systems on the marketplace are available only within the “Army of Drones Bonus” program, a mechanism that directly links unit performance to the ability to obtain modern technological solutions.
