据前乌克兰国防部长米哈伊洛·费多罗夫称，无人机目前占所有目标交战的95%以上。他希望推动这一转变，实现战场机器人的全面化。

费多罗夫在利沃夫举行的IT Arena 2026大会上分享了这一数据。他表示，乌克兰现在拥有超过700家无人机制造商，但他并未明确说明该数字涵盖的时间段或具体行动。长期以来，乌克兰一直是人工智能驱动战争（尤其是无人机）的试验场。这些行动中产生的AI作战数据甚至已成为一种出口产品，英国是首个买家。

费多罗夫宣布推动私营部门组建机器人军队

这一声明表明，乌克兰战争如何重塑了公众对军事机器人的讨论。尽管各国在联合国持续辩论限制自主武器的界限，费多罗夫却公开呼吁“全面战场机器人化”，并为其私人项目配以充满军事色彩的预告片以及一个名为“机器人军队”的网站来佐证其主张。

该项目将依托私营国防科技公司的生态系统运行。费多罗夫计划投资相关企业，启动自己的技术项目，并在大规模范围内与军方测试实际可用的系统。“应该由机器人作战，而不是人，”他在Telegram上写道。至于这些机器人是否也会自主做出攻击决策，目前尚不清楚，不过据报道，在无人机领域这种情况已经发生。

费多罗夫的推动举措兼具心理战性质，旨在威慑俄罗斯并吸引投资者。预告片中的人形机器人与无人机相比，远未达到实战准备状态，甚至可能根本不具备军事合理性。然而，从联合国禁止自主武器的谈判到私人战斗机器人倡议的转变，显示了自主武器领域局势变化的速度之快。这种侵略性的视频宣传并非新鲜事。近九年前，“生命未来研究所”发布了《屠杀机器人》（Slaughterbots），那部影片同样具有戏剧性，但目标截然相反：旨在警告人们警惕自主战斗机器人。

Drones now account for more than 95 percent of all target engagements, according to former Ukrainian Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov. He wants to push that shift toward full battlefield robotics.

Fedorov shared the figure at IT Arena 2026 in Lviv. Ukraine now has more than 700 drone manufacturers, he said, though he didn't specify what time period or operations the number covers. The country has long been a testing ground for AI-powered warfare, especially drones . The AI combat data from those operations has even become an export product , with the UK as the first buyer.

Fedorov announces private-sector push for a robot army

The announcement shows how the Ukraine war has reshaped the public conversation around military robotics. While nations keep debating limits on autonomous weapons at the UN, Fedorov is openly calling for "full-scale battlefield robotisation," backing that claim with a militaristic trailer and an "Army of Robots" website for his private program.

The project would run on an ecosystem of private defense tech firms. Fedorov plans to invest in companies, launch his own tech projects, and test working systems with the military at scale. "Robots should fight, not people," he wrote on Telegram . Whether those robots would also make attack decisions on their own remains unclear, though with drones, that's reportedly already happening .

Fedorov's push doubles as psychological warfare, meant to intimidate Russia and attract investors. The humanoid robots in the trailer are nowhere near as battle-ready as drones and may not make military sense at all. Still, the leap from UN ban talks to a private combat robot initiative shows how fast the ground has shifted on autonomous weapons. This kind of aggressive video PR isn't new. Almost nine years ago, the Future of Life Institute released "Slaughterbots" , a film just as dramatic but with the opposite goal: warning against autonomous combat robots.
