Bhairav Robotics Launches Vrishabh: India's Advanced Unmanned Battlefield Vehicle
Kakinada-based defence startup Bhairav Robotics has unveiled the Vrishabh Combat All-Terrain Vehicle, a multirole unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) showcased through a demonstration video released on December 8, 2025, and amplified across social media platforms on December 9. Developed to support Indian armed forces in high-risk roles, Vrishabh is designed for combat, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, casualty evacuation, and frontline logistics across difficult terrain. The tracked platform features all-terrain mobility, autonomous navigation, and integration with Bhairav Robotics’ indigenous Rakshak remote weapon station, which offers stabilized, AI-enabled targeting for small arms and machine guns. Visuals shared by defence enthusiasts show Vrishabh with a mounted weapon station and electro-optical sensors, highlighting its suitability for border security, urban operations, and convoy protection. The launch aligns with the Atmanirbhar Bharat push to expand India’s indigenous defence robotics ecosystem, adding to Bhairav Robotics’ portfolio of armed quadruped robots and autonomous weapon systems aimed at enhancing troop safety by removing soldiers from direct line-of-fire roles.
