Footage shows the destruction of five Ukrainian "Protector" heavy wheeled robotic vehicles by Russian FPV drones. The videos were recorded in the Kharkiv and Sumy regions, as well as in the Donbas. The "Protector" wheeled robotic system is manufactured by the company "Ukrainian Armored Vehicles" (Ukrainska Bronetekhnika) and was first unveiled in 2024. The "Protector" is quite large—essentially an unmanned vehicle. While it can be equipped with a turret, it is primarily used for transporting cargo weighing up to 1.5 tons; it has a top speed of 60 km/h and a range of 400 km. The unit is operated via a Starlink satellite connection.

Judging by video footage, Ukrainian troops use a makeshift wheeled platform to travel inside the pipelines. According to media reports, this tactic has not yet proven successful.
