Robotic Dogs Enhancing Ukrainian Military Operations in Donetsk Region

The Ukrainian military has deployed 30 BAD.2 robots in the Donetsk area for reconnaissance and mine detection. BAD.Brit Alliance's two robots combine compactness, power, and stealth to enable successful warfare operations. Robotic dogs minimise military risk, improve combat effectiveness, and boost army morale.

These ground drones, sometimes known as robot dogs, were created by Brit Alliance and have shown to be important tools in recent military battles, particularly on the front lines in Ukraine.


The BAD.2 robots are compact but powerful, with exceptional attributes that allow them to flourish in demanding conditions. With a top speed of 15 km/h and a battery life of up to 5 hours, these robots are capable of navigating tough terrain, detecting mines, and performing critical reconnaissance duties.

The BAD.2 robots are equipped with Concamo camouflage technology and a stealthy mobility system, allowing them to manoeuvre silently and unseen while performing missions. These robotic canines play an important role in tracking enemy movements, lowering the risk to Ukrainian intelligence operatives in the Donetsk region.


Kyle Thorburn, the leader of Brit Alliance, emphasised the importance of these robotic canines in increasing combat effectiveness and protecting personnel. He lauded their ability to undertake reconnaissance missions in high-risk locations, reducing the risks experienced by human troops and increasing army morale.

The BAD.2 robots, which are operated by operators, provide a distinct advantage by entering regions inaccessible to airborne drones, such as buildings and enemy fortifications. Their video cameras help with topographical reconnaissance, mine identification, and monitoring Russian army movements, greatly improving Ukrainian military intelligence capabilities.


A single BAD.2 robot costs between 4 and 8 thousand euros, depending on the type, and is a worthwhile investment for the military considering the operational advantages it provides. The 28th Separate Mechanised Brigade was the first to use these breakthrough robotic developments.


In parallel, the UK is actively researching advanced military drone technology, including initiatives aimed at producing coordinated drone swarms capable of performing complicated tasks simultaneously.
