UGV with PKM Portable Mine Dispensers

13 Aug 2025

A Russian uncrewed ground vehicle (UGV) has been deployed and destroyed in Ukraine by a first-person view uncrewed aerial vehicle.

The UGV was fitted with nine PKM portable mine dispensers
The PKM can dispense a range of anti-personnel, anti-tank and anti-landing craft mines
Use of UGV removes need for risking personnel or specialist engineering vehicles to deploy the mines
Russian UGVs have been seen previously deploying TM-62s in Ukraine, presented in a previous Fenix Insight bulletin 29th Jan 2024
