Mine-clearing machines produced in Azerbaijan by ImProtex are being used to support demining operations across the country, as efforts continue to address landmine contamination left by past conflicts.
The robotic systems, which have also been delivered to Ukraine, are designed to improve the safety and speed of mine clearance work by reducing direct human exposure to explosives.
Footage recorded under the framework of ANAMA shows the machines operating in real field conditions, highlighting their role in clearance tasks in contaminated areas. The technology has also been presented internationally, including at the UMEX 2026 exhibition in Abu Dhabi, which focuses on autonomous systems, robotics, artificial intelligence and training simulation.
Revival T was presented during the event, where it was displayed as part of Azerbaijan’s domestically developed mine-clearance technologies. The machine is designed to operate in areas with heavier contamination, including anti-tank mine threats, and is intended for use in demanding terrain during demining operations.
Alongside advances in domestic robotics development, the landmine threat in Azerbaijan remains a major humanitarian concern. Large areas affected by previous fighting continue to pose risks to civilians and slow reconstruction, resettlement and agricultural activity.
According to official data released by ANAMA on 23 December 2025 and updated in early January 2026, Azerbaijan has cleared more than 240,000 hectares of mine-affected land since 2020, neutralising over 227,000 landmines and explosive remnants of war. In 2025 alone, tens of thousands of hectares were declared safe, although significant contamination remains in several districts.
Analysts say locally produced robotic equipment is becoming an increasingly important element of humanitarian demining, supporting post-conflict recovery while improving operational safety and efficiency on the ground.
