The Gulliver ground robotic system has been adopted for deployment within the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The Ministry of Defence has codified and adopted the Gulliver universal ground robotic system for deployment within the units of the Defence Forces of Ukraine. It is designed to carry out a broad range of tasks in challenging weather conditions.

This was reported by the MoD’s Main Directorate for Support of the Life Cycle of Weapons and Military Equipment. 

The Gulliver ground robotic system was developed by Ukrainian engineers, incorporating combat experience from our defenders. The system is capable of transporting ammunition, gear, and equipment, as well as evacuating wounded personnel. It also functions as a transporter for combat modules. In specific configurations, the system can carry out mine action operations. The Gulliver can transport over 300 kilograms of cargo on paved roads and a slightly lighter load on difficult-to-traverse off-road terrain. The robot's towing capacity is enough to pull a small military off-road vehicle out of the mud.

The Gulliver is compact enough to fit into a pickup truck bed, operates across a wide temperature range, and can tackle steep slopes. The battery provides enough charge to deliver the cargo for several tens of kilometers and make the return journey.

A reminder to defense equipment manufacturers: helpful information on the procedure for codifying new models of weapons and military equipment is available here.
