Armed Robot Dogs/Quadrupedal Unmanned Ground Vehicles (Q-UGVs) equipped with weapons SARBOT is an armed robotic ground system developed by Sarsılmaz as part of its expansion into autonomous and unmanned defense technologies. The system was introduced at major defense industry exhibitions, including SAHA EXPO and IDEF, where it was presented as a next-generation robotic platform for military and security applications.
SARBOT is designed for remote-controlled or semi-autonomous operation and can be equipped with modular payloads, including weapon systems and sensor suites, depending on mission requirements. It is intended for use in reconnaissance, surveillance, perimeter security, and operations in high-risk environments where deploying personnel may be hazardous.
The platform reflects Sarsılmaz’s broader strategic shift from traditional small arms manufacturing toward integrated defense systems, including robotics and autonomous solutions.
