乌克兰军队首次使用水陆两栖地面机器人执行后勤任务，跨越数十英里的陆地和水域运送物资。
Ukrainian forces used an amphibious ground robot to run supplies dozens of miles across land and water in a first-of-its-kind logistics mission.
这台水陆两栖机器人由第93机械化旅的士兵操作，在复杂地形中行驶了25英里，向一线阵地运送了弹药和给养。
The amphibious robot, operated by soldiers in the 93rd Mechanized Brigade, traveled 25 miles across varied terrain to deliver ammunition and provisions to front-line positions.
乌克兰官方支持的创新平台Brave1在与《商业内幕》共享的一份声明中表示：“前线的水域障碍对军事后勤构成了严峻挑战。”
"Water obstacles along the front line present a critical challenge for military logistics," the Ukrainian state-backed innovation platform Brave1 said in a statement shared with Business Insider.
声明补充道：“河流、运河和沼泽会严重阻碍甚至完全切断常规无人地面车辆（UGV）的补给路线，而空中补给也并非总是可行。”
"Rivers, canals, and marshlands can severely impede or completely sever supply routes for conventional UGVs, while aerial resupply is not always viable," it added, referring to uncrewed ground vehicles.
执行此次补给任务的机器人是一款名为“特里顿”（Triton）的国产型号，在陆地上作为常规无人地面车辆运行，具有极高的机动性。当到达水域时，该机器人在几秒钟内切换到游泳模式。
The robot used in the supply mission, a domestically produced model called Triton, operated on land as a conventional UGV, with high mobility. When it reached the water, the robot switched to swimming mode within seconds.
Brave1表示：“因此，单一资产在复杂地形中获得了更广泛的作战多功能性。”
"A single asset thereby gains broader operational versatility across complex terrain," Brave1 said.
Brave1称，该机器人在执行任务前经过了数月的研发，并且是在与士兵密切配合下完成的，充分考虑了他们的需求和前线地形。目前尚不清楚此次行动发生的确切时间和地点。
Brave1 said the robot underwent months of development ahead of its mission and that it was done in close coordination with the soldiers, factoring in their requirements and the front-line terrain. It's unclear exactly when and where the operation took place.
今年，地面机器人已成为乌克兰后勤的重要组成部分，官员们希望在危险的前线任务中尽可能用机器代替士兵。
Ground robots have become a vital component of Ukrainian logistics this year as officials look to replace soldiers with machines wherever possible in dangerous front-line missions.
乌克兰国防企业长期以来一直在研发水陆两栖战场机器人；例如，Ratel Robotics在5月份告诉《商业内幕》，该公司正在设计用于两栖伤员撤离、后勤和突击任务的无人地面车辆。
Ukrainian defense companies have long been pursuing amphibious battlefield robots; Ratel Robotics, for instance, told Business Insider in May that it was designing UGVs for amphibious casualty evacuation, logistics, and assault missions.
6月份，在乌克兰国防部的支持下，Brave1在其资助计划中推出了一个针对水陆两栖机器人的新赛道。
In June, Brave1 launched a new track for amphibious robots within its grant program, with support from Ukraine's defense ministry.
此次两栖后勤运送任务正值机器人越来越多地被用于战场非常规任务之际。
The amphibious logistics run comes as robots are increasingly being used in unconventional missions on the battlefield.
本月早些时候，乌克兰第三军 Corps 宣布他们使用重型轰炸无人机，将机器人空投到俄罗斯阵地后方数英里的区域，发动了一次突然的袭击。这次袭击发生在“维瓦尔第行动”（Operation Vivaldi）期间——这是乌克兰在东部地区发起的一次大规模攻势，通过此次行动，基辅已经从俄罗斯手中夺回了数十平方公里的土地。
Earlier this month, Ukraine's Third Army Corps revealed that it used heavy bomber drones to air-drop robots several miles behind Russian positions in a surprise assault. That assault occurred during Operation Vivaldi, a major Ukrainian offensive underway in the east that has seen Kyiv retake dozens of square miles from Russian control.
