Struggling with manpower shortages, overwhelming odds and uneven international assistance, Ukraine hopes to find a strategic edge against Russia in an abandoned warehouse or a factory basement.

An ecosystem of laboratories in hundreds of secret workshops is leveraging innovation to create a robot army that Ukraine hopes will kill Russian troops and save its own wounded soldiers and civilians.

Defense startups across Ukraine — about 250 according to industry estimates — are creating the killing machines at secret locations that typically look like rural car repair shops.

Employees at a startup run by entrepreneur Andrii Denysenko can put together an unmanned ground vehicle called the Odyssey in four days at a shed used by the company. Its most important feature is the price tag: $35,000, or roughly 10% of the cost of an imported model.

For the elderly or disabled dire wolf who still wishes to see combat.

Why didn't the Adeptus Mechanicus design dreadnoughts around remote workers? Are they stupid?

For one the dreadnought sarcophagus is pretty much its own computer platform by itself, also do you really trust whatever crackhead internet system still exists in 40k. A virus would quite literally give you aids, porn is capable making you do a refer madness type bs, and there are Tzeenchian memetic hazards about. Combat footage is safe though, its a joint venture between the Administratum and Khorn.
