The war in Ukraine continues to be a testing ground for weaponry and groundbreaking technology – especially in drone warfare.

A Russian video recently showcased a 3D-printed rover that is capable of transforming from an uncrewed ground vehicle (UGV) into an uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) at the flick of a control.

The dual-purpose drone offers exceptional flexibility, overcoming obstacles by flying over them while maintaining a low profile to avoid detection.
