Robot wolf (Chinese: 机器狼) is a type of military robot based on legged models, designed and produced by Chinese defence firm Norinco as part of a robotic platform for the People’s Liberation Army[1][2].
History
While the PLA started deploying military robots since 2022 at the Sino-Indian border, its usage increased from 2024[3][4][5]. Robot wolves also appeared in the 2025 China Victory Day Parade[6][7][8][9].
Design
Based on commercial robots, robot wolves are based on the behaviour of wolves[10] with high adaptability in various environments[11][12].
Robot wolves may be armed with various armaments, including but are not limited to, QBZ-95 or QBZ-191 assault rifles[13][14].
