Varkhan
Product descripton: Varkhan by AIR 3F
Varkhan is a modern robotic ground platform designed to perform tasks in the most challenging conditions. Its primary purpose is to transport cargo, support military and civilian operations, and increase unit autonomy in field environments.
It combines high payload capacity, mobility, and reliability. Thanks to its electric drive and portal axle suspension, it is capable of operating in mud, dirt roads, snow, and other difficult terrain while maintaining stability and controllability.
Design and Mobility
The platform is built on a wheeled 4×4 chassis with an amortized suspension system and off-road wheels. It is designed to ensure stable movement across rough terrain, including swampy areas and uneven surfaces.
It maintains consistent mobility in degraded conditions and is capable of replacing multiple personnel roles during operations.
Control and Communication
The system uses radio-analog control (video 5.8, control 915) with optional Starlink and LTE integration.
Video transmission supports analog and digital formats.
Operational range:
- 2–3 km (line of sight)
- up to 10 km via repeater
- unlimited via Starlink/LTE
Power and Operation
The platform is powered by an electric system with Li-NMC battery technology. It supports regenerative braking and is designed for efficient energy usage during missions.
Charging time is up to 4 hours, supporting sustained operational deployment cycles.
Operational Capabilities
- Logistics and supply delivery
- Casualty evacuation
- Reconnaissance and surveillance
- Tactical support operations
- Operation in mud, snow, and rough terrain
