The Numo ground robotic complex has been upgraded with interchangeable payload modules, enabling the platform to perform logistical, engineering, and combat missions. Additional mounted armor has also been installed to enhance its operational capabilities.
The executive director of Numo Robotics, Nazar Prymak, reported this, according to Militarny.
According to Prymak, the Numo GRC has been fitted with interchangeable payload modules, significantly expanding its application range.
The platform can transport up to 300 kilograms of cargo, with the total weight of the equipped ground drone reaching 620 kg. In its basic configuration, the Numo GRC has a range of 25 kilometers, which can be extended to 40 kilometers with additional batteries. The maximum speed is 7 km/h.
Prymak noted that adding extra modules can reduce these specifications, but the performance remains sufficient to accomplish the designated missions.
Protective modules
One additional module is mounted armor, which the company developed at the request of some units.
“It’s also designed as a modular system, meaning if you need armor for a specific mission, you can add it, and if not, you can remove it for other tasks,” explained the director of Numo Robotics. “Of course, any added armor or protective modifications will reduce the payload capacity from the original 300 kilograms, but we have enough margin to accommodate that.”
The company also provides options for installing additional electronic warfare systems and specialized camouflage covers designed to reduce the platform’s heat signature. In addition, mine trawls, specifically engineered for the Numo platform and capable of withstanding anti-personnel mine detonations, are available as a separate offering.

Logistics modules
In its logistics configuration, the Numo platform is fitted with rigging equipment to securely transport cargo. Additionally, a “dump truck” module has been developed, enabling the system to unload cargo at a designated location without requiring military personnel to leave cover or expose themselves during the unloading process.
Engineering modules
In addition to cargo delivery, the dump truck module can be used for mine-laying operations, specifically with TM-type anti-tank mines.
For the deployment of non-explosive barriers, an automatic barbed wire deployment module is available, enabling remote installation of up to 50 meters of “Iehoza” barbed wire. The company is also developing a tow truck module to recover disabled drones from the field.

Combat modules
For combat use, the Numo platform has already integrated DevDroid combat modules for:
KT-7.62 (PKT) machine guns,
M2 Browning caliber 12.7 mm.
Separately, work is underway to integrate the combat module with the Mk-19 automatic grenade launcher.
For reference:
It should be noted that the Ukrainian company DevDroid has implemented an optical target detection and identification system using artificial intelligence in its ground robotic complexes.
According to reports, the Ministry of Defense approved more than 1,300 new models of domestically produced weapons and military equipment for service last year, representing a 25% increase compared to 2024.
It should be noted that the Defense Ministry has admitted a new domestically produced Zmiy Droid 12.7 ground robotic complex for operation in Ukraine’s armed forces.
