Armed robot dogs are heading to the frontlines of the South China Sea as Taiwan turns to next-generation asymmetric warfare to counter Beijing's relentless maritime bullying. Taiwan's National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology (NCSIST) has unveiled three military-grade quadruped robot prototypes built on advanced U.S. Ghost Robotics Vision 60 platforms. These autonomous systems are engineered to endure high-risk environments on remote outposts like the Pratas and Spratly Islands, where Taiwanese forces face a constant barrage of Chinese coast guard incursions and drone activity. The key features and specifications of these autonomous platforms include: Weight and Payload: Weighs approximately 52.4 kg and carries a moving payload up to 10 kg. Speed and Endurance: Travels up to 2.5 meters per second with an 8 to 10 hour battery life. Terrain Mastery: Scales stairs, climbs steep slopes, navigates mud, sand, or rocks, and instantly self-rights if knocked down. Environmental Resilience: Features an IP67 weatherproof rating and operates in extreme temperatures from -40°C to 55°C. Patrol Variant: Utilizes LiDAR and thermal imaging for 3D environmental mapping and nighttime facility monitoring. Reconnaissance Variant: Features an electro-optical system to identify, track, and stream target data to a smart command network. Firepower Variant: Features a remote controlled weapon station mounted on its back for combat support and coastal defense. The primary motivation behind these robotic guardians is the escalating geopolitical friction in the South China Sea. Remote outposts like the Pratas Islands and Itu Aba are entirely controlled by Taiwan but face frequent gray-zone harassment from aggressive Chinese coast guard hulls and surveillance drone overflights. Because these locations are garrisoned by coast guard and marine personnel without civilian populations, these heavily armed, networked robot dogs allow Taiwan to maintain an unwavering defensive posture along isolated perimeters. #SouthChinaSea #Taiwan #GhostRobotics #AsymmetricWarfare #NationalSecurity #DefenseTech #UnmannedSystems #Sovereignty x.com/Reuters/status/2061971…

🇹🇼The National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology (#NCSIST) of #Taiwan today showcased three #military #robotic dog variants based on the #GhostRobotics #Vision60 platform, highlighting advances in payload development, system integration, and mission-specific applications. The demonstration featured a lidar-equipped model designed for obstacle avoidance and #3D mapping, a reconnaissance variant for target #detection and #tracking, and an armed version equipped with an #AI-assisted remote weapon station. Future development will focus on integrating robotic dogs with other #unmanned systems to strengthen battlefield awareness and combat effectiveness. 🇹🇼#國家中山科學研究院（#NCSIST）今日展示3款以 Ghost Robotics「Vision 60」軍規機器狗為平台開發的 #軍用機器狗，展現國內在 #酬載開發、#系統整合 及不同 #任務情境應用 方面的成果。 此次展示包括具備三維建模與避障能力的 #光達型、執行目標搜尋與戰場監偵任務的 #偵蒐型，以及結合AI辨識與遙控槍塔系統的 #火力型 機器狗。 未來將朝 #無人載具 #協同作戰 方向發展，強化戰場感知與作戰效能。

🇺🇸🇺🇸 Plan to neutralize deep Iranian bunkers like Fordow with NO LOSS of US lives: Step 1 - Seal the mountain. Hit all known vents (2-3 main shafts plus backups) with MOPs or drones, collapse entrances, concrete plugs. No air in, no escape. Step 2 - Swarm entry. Send 500 BD Spot-type robot dogs (knee-high, 14kg payload). Scouts first: armed with 6.5mm Creedmoor or 7.62mm rifles - AI aims, night-vision, pink mist on IRGC. Add compact flamethrowers (Thermonator-style, 30ft napalm jets) - burn oxygen, melt gear. Step 3 - CO2/Napalm delivery. Small dogs haul 10L CO2 max - asphyxiation in rooms. Big sled-pullers (Vision 60 mods) drag missile-sized napalm tanks (500-1000L CO2 or napalm jelly). Chain teams: lead scouts, haulers spray behind. CO2 at 5-10% kills in minutes. Napalm spreads fire, sucks O2, no dead zones. Step 4 - Factory mode. Mobile assembly line outside: roll one dog every 5 minutes. Dead? Next up - no casualties, just metal. Reality check: Tunnels branch, CO2 leaks through cracks (even sealed, pressure pushes out). Napalm backfires if fans recirculate. EMP fries circuits, smoke blinds AI. But scale 500 dogs tank trains overwhelms - IRGC can't shoot 'em all. Disposable tech: humans die fast, robots don't. Fire and gas turn mountain into oven. CRY HAVOC!! 🔥 🏔️ ☠️ @POTUS @CENTCOM @BostonDynamics @GhostRobotics @AndurilIndustries @UnitreeRobotics @PeteHegseth @SecDefHegseth @GenDanCaine @DeptofDefense #IranBunkers #RobotWar

Its from US based GhostRobotics.... I am sure they get their robots from China as well.

Aabe loude, thats Ghostrobotics

So your army removed the Ghostrobotics sticker? What an achievement. 🤣

🤖 ¿Y si el problema no es que los robots caminen solos… sino a dónde pueden llegar? En esta ponencia de #RootedCON2025, Claudia Álvarez Aparicio y Adrián Campazas Vega desmontaron —literalmente— la seguridad de un robot cuadrúpedo militar: el Vision 60 de Ghost Robotics. No se trata de ciencia ficción, sino de ciberseguridad real aplicada a la robótica que ya está entre nosotros. #Robótica #Ciberseguridad #GhostRobotics #Vision60 #RootedCON #Hacking

GhostRoboticsさんのVision60おった。つよそう

SkydioのインドのパートナーAeroArcの最新プロモーションビデオ。インド軍に大型配備されたら、Skydioの売上、インド単体でも結構凄いことになりそうだな。犬型ロボのGhostRoboticsも銃器が取り付けられて、早々と殺戮兵器に改造されている。

@GhostRobotics, congrats on your genocide contract! Imagine how many women and children that thing will murder.
