Russia shows training of “Courier” combat robot with heavy weapons

The war in Ukraine has accelerated the development and deployment of unmanned technologies, which are no longer confined to surveillance tasks. Both Russia and Ukraine are expanding their use of drones for offensive operations, in the air as well as on the ground, reflecting a wider trend of battlefield modernisation.

The Russian Ministry of Defence recently published footage of operators of the “Courier” ground robotic complex carrying out training at a rear-area range. The exercise involved live firing with an automatic grenade launcher, a heavy Kord machine gun, and a Kalashnikov tank machine gun, simulating support for assault units.
