Ukraine proposes 'Army of Robots' push for humanoid-like ground robots

Former Ukrainian defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov announced a 'Manhattan Project' style initiative to rapidly field ground robots (including humanoid-like concepts) and autonomous systems, aiming for confirmed battlefield results within six months and robot-led assaults within a year. While many designs are aspirational, the novelty is the formalized ecosystem/funding-and-testing model (mirroring the earlier 'Army of Drones') explicitly targeting infantry substitution plus parallel development of AI strike drones/missiles and cheaper anti-Shahed interceptors.
