El desarrollo de vehículos terrestres no tripulados (UGV) ha avanzado lentamente, con desafíos y preguntas constantes en torno a su integración en operaciones militares y fuerzas terrestres (Gosselin-Malo, 2023). Este artículo tiene como objetivo delinear los avances en la robótica terrestre, explorar las razones de su creciente proliferación en la guerra, describir los desafíos potenciales en su integración generalizada y analizar brevemente el despliegue de dicha artillería en la actual guerra entre Rusia y Ucrania.
The automation of military vehicles and systems has long been a feature of warfare, but the emergence and development of ground robotics are revolutionising modern combat. Since their deployment in conflicts such as in Afghanistan and Iraq, ground robots have evolved into increasingly capable and autonomous entities integrated into military operations (Rosenberg, 2024). Fuelled by recent conflicts such as the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the Russia-Ukraine War, which have highlighted the significant impact of military robotics on the battlefield, interest in the further development of this field continues.
The development of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) has proceeded slowly, with ongoing challenges and questions surrounding their integration into military operations and ground forces (Gosselin-Malo, 2023). This paper aims to outline the advancements in ground robotics, explore the rationale for their increased proliferation in warfare, outline potential challenges in their widespread integration, and briefly analyse the deployment of such ordnance in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine War.
