Don't be alerted, the German Military has bought a real-life-sized robotic replica of Russian vehicles to use for training and target practice
The robots maneuver like real tanks and can be customized with features such as turrets that actually rotate. The vehicles are made of steel, with each weighing a little over 1,300 pounds. They come in flat-pack kits that can be assembled by four people in an hour.
The robots are equipped with thermal cells that simulate the signature of a real vehicle, which allows pilots, gunners, and senior operators to get a feel for how a real Russian or Chinese tank appears in a thermal sight.
