Ukrainian company NUMO Robotics has unveiled a new electric wheeled platform, LOKO, designed to provide logistical support to frontline positions and to evacuate damaged or bogged-down equipment. The company reported this on social media.
The company presented the platform at the IRON HALLOWEEN PARTY 2026 exhibition. LOKO is positioned as a heavy logistics UGV. According to the manufacturer, its payload capacity exceeds 500kg, and the design features a modular cargo platform for transporting the necessary equipment and supplies.
As the publication “Oboronka” reports, the UGV can also serve as a tug. To that end, the ground robotic system has been fitted with a tow hitch, allowing it to tow vehicles weighing between 1,000 and 1,500kg. In addition, equipment that needs to be evacuated can, if its dimensions allow, be placed directly on the system’s cargo platform.
LOKO is equipped with four 1.5kW electric motors and a chain drive. Its stated range is up to 80km on hard surfaces and up to 60km off-road. Maximum speed depends on the terrain type: up to 20km/h on hard surfaces and up to 12km/h off-road. The system can operate continuously for up to five hours, and its ground clearance is 200mm.
For control and data transmission, LOKO supports up to six types of communications. The main options include Starlink, LTE and Wi‑Fi. In addition, the platform is compatible with Silvus, DTC, Sine.Link and ELRS equipment, which can be installed depending on the operator’s needs.
The company added that the UGV has undergone combat trials, after which the designers made changes to the design taking into account feedback from service personnel.
