A useful UGV starts with a task, an operator and a measurable acceptance criterion. HARDY develops a family of platforms around connected mission roles rather than a single isolated demonstration.
Strike missions
Remote fire engagement, breaching and one-way assault roles.
Logistics
Move supplies without adding human exposure.
ISR
Extend sensing into hazardous environments.
Recovery
Robots should be able to help recover robots.
A RESULT THE SYSTEM CAN SEE
More completed missions. Fewer hazardous human runs.
Ukraine’s publicly stated direction is to scale ground robotics across logistics, evacuation, reconnaissance and other missions. HARDY turns that priority into a concrete product, a trained crew and an outcome that a unit can record within its authorised reporting environment.
What we measure with the unit
Tasks completed
Completed logistics, evacuation, ISR, route and recovery missions in a defined configuration.
Delivered and recovered
Payload moved, route completion, people evacuated or equipment recovered, depending on the mission.
Mission cycle
Preparation, deployment, execution, return and restoration of readiness for the next task.
Hazardous runs avoided
Physical work accepted by the machine instead of personnel entering the hazardous area.
Platform returned to service
Recovery, repair, module replacement and time to restore an operational configuration.
Crew prepared
Operators and technicians who complete role-based training and repeat the mission cycle.
From task to demonstrated effect
Establish the baseline
Scenario, route, human runs, time, payload and the success criterion before UGV deployment.
Run the pilot
A known platform configuration, trained crew, repeatable route and structured mission record.
Scale the outcome
Compare the cycle, validate the effect and define the platform + control + energy + training package for repeat use.
PUBLIC OPERATIONAL CONTEXT
DELTA and Mission Control turn missions into decision data.
According to Ukraine’s Ministry of Defence, Mission Control covers reconnaissance, strike, mining, logistics and evacuation, while UGV missions in DELTA can be planned, reported and verified. From January to early June 2026, ground robots completed more than 50,000 logistics and evacuation missions, while the number of user units rose to 230.
