Ukraine uses Lyut combat robot to counter Russian attacks

Ukraine is expanding the use of ground robotic systems in real combat in Sumy Oblast.

Recently, the Ukrainian Defense Intelligence Service (GUR) deployed the “Lyut” unmanned ground combat robot in a combat operation against Russian forces. Photo: @GUR.

The robot vehicle, equipped with a 7.62mm PKT machine gun, moved through rugged terrain, including fallen trees and bomb craters, before opening fire on entrenched enemy targets. Photo: @GUR.

The deployment of the Lyut combat robot created a suppression point, allowing other Ukrainian units to launch sophisticated tactical attacks later, officials with the Ukrainian Defense Intelligence Service said. Photo: @GUR.

Designed specifically for combat purposes, the unmanned ground combat robot “Lyut” avoids the disadvantages commonly found in multi-purpose ground robots. Photo: @GUR.

The machine gun is mounted in the center of the system to simplify turret control, and the low chassis protects important parts with Level 4 armor, capable of withstanding small arms fire. Photo: @GUR.

The unmanned ground combat robot “Lyut” is remotely controlled by a single operator using a control panel, similar to that for a first-person view FPV drone. Photo: @GUR.

Two joysticks on the dashboard allow the operator to control the vehicle and weapon systems at the same time. Photo: @GUR.

Ukrainian developers say that soldiers with experience operating drones can master the control of the “Lyut” unmanned ground combat robot in less than three days. Photo: @GUR.

The Lyut unmanned ground combat robot maintains a control range of up to 3 km in line-of-sight conditions. It is equipped with two optical cameras providing different fields of view, and an optional thermal imaging sensor. However, the weapon system does not incorporate stabilization, forcing the vehicle to stop to fire accurately. Photo: @GUR.

The Lyut's magazine holds 550 rounds, and its integrated optics allow targeting at distances of up to 800 meters. The system is resistant to electronic warfare jamming within a radius of 700 meters. Photo: @GUR.

The vehicle's developer said the Lyut is designed for defensive operations, but can also perform static or mobile roles on the battlefield, act as a decoy to attract enemy fire, and detect the positions of Russian troops. Photo: @GUR.

The deployment underscores Ukraine’s growing use of unmanned systems in combat, as Kiev adapts to Russian tactics and seeks to conserve manpower while also increasing pressure on enemy forces. Photo: @GUR.
