According to a post by Ukraine’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, on his official Telegram channel, the Pavuk Dopkhina drone is cutting-edge technology developed by the 3rd Assault Brigade and Omnitech with support from Brave1.
The name “Dophin” commemorates a fallen Ukrainian soldier. It has now become a powerful weapon against enemy targets. The drone can engage targets over 50 kilometers away, autonomously map terrain using AI algorithms, and lock onto key areas, outperforming foreign counterparts in critical performance metrics.
The main function of the drone is to provide reliable communications for UAVs conducting deep-strike missions behind enemy lines. Thanks to the capabilities of the Pavuk Dopkhina system, Ukrainian drones can destroy surface-to-air missile systems, logistics hubs, and other critical targets.
Fedorov stated that the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ 3rd Assault Brigade has already deployed Pavuk Dopkhina on missions, causing significant losses to Russian forces.
Earlier reports indicated that Ukraine’s National Guard 13th Brigade “Khartia” successfully operated a Ukrainian ground robotic platform to perform dual missions—delivering supplies to the frontline and evacuating wounded soldiers along a 34-kilometer route.
