Unprecedented footage shows the Lyut traversing uneven areas, with fallen trees and cratered explosions.
After positioning itself, the robot opens fire with a 7.62 mm PKT machine gun against entrenched positions of the Russian army.

According to the GUR, the operation with the Lyut created a suppression point in combat. This allowed Ukrainian units to maneuver with less risk.
The Lyut was developed exclusively for combat. It does not need to balance different functions, as is the case with multifunctional robots.
Its machine gun is mounted at the center of mass of the robot. This position facilitates the control of the firing turret.
The chassis of the Lyut is low and armored with level 4 protection. This means it is capable of withstanding fire from light weapons.
Another highlight is the mobility. The robot features independent front suspension, rotating wheels, and solid rubber tires reinforced with steel rims.
This combination helps the Lyut withstand shrapnel and direct fire.
A single operator controls the robot. The control is done via a console similar to those used in FPV drones.
According to the developers, experienced soldiers with drones can learn to operate the Lyut in up to three days. Two joysticks provide full control over movement and weaponry.
The control range is up to 3 kilometers in a straight line. The system accepts optical cameras at various angles and can have a thermal sensor installed.
Firing needs to be done with the robot stationary, as there is still no stabilization in the armament.
The Lyut has the capacity for 550 cartridges and accurate aiming up to 800 meters, with integrated optics. It withstands electronic warfare up to 700 meters.
And, with ground relay stations or those mounted on drones, the communication range can be extended.
Even designed for defense, the Lyut can be used in mobile or fixed positions. It can also function as bait to reveal Russian positions.
