Fighters of the 1st Slavyansk Brigade of the 51st Donetsk Army use ground-based unmanned platforms.

The Surprise Evacuation frontline transporter solves all the logistics tasks of the frontline, as providing units on the frontline has become dangerous due to enemy drones.

"The most dangerous thing is the delivery of ammunition, food, and water. The fighter on the line of contact is more than a kilometer from the nearest supply location. And someone has to cover this distance loaded, with bags. Due to the threat of UAVs, this is very dangerous. However, these platforms allow us to provide our fighters," said a soldier with the call sign Sobol.

To load the wounded and take them to the rear, the side opens on the tracked platform and is fixed in the unfolded position, which allows the stretcher to be placed and fixed.

The 1st Slavic Brigade has several variants of ground-based drones with combat modules installed on them. These are vehicles with paired rifle-caliber machine guns and a large-caliber Utes, with an AGS automatic grenade launcher and designs with various anti-tank grenade launchers or flamethrowers.

Combat vehicles approach enemy strongholds at 400-500 m and create a density of fire that the rifle squad cannot provide.
