Kobra 725

Lifting 150 kg with a reach of 3.5 m, the Kobra 725 is the heavy end of Teledyne FLIR Defense's EOD line and the commercial twin of the Kobra 710 that the US Army fielded as its Common Robotic System-Heavy (CRS-H).

Announced in June 2022, the tracked robot weighs under 250 kg according to the press release (EDR says 'around 250 kg'), is 133 cm long, drives at 13 km/h and folds to fit inside small response vehicles. Vertical reach is 350 cm on the product page, 'almost 4 m' in the press release.

Radio control follows the IOP interoperability standard, so the robot works with third-party controllers and payloads; cameras provide the operator's view. The Kobra 725 is unarmed and has no armed variants; its purpose is large-device disposal, vehicle entry and other tasks that need more strength than lighter robots can muster.

It is on sale with pricing on request, and the maker does not detail endurance beyond the figures above. Within the Teledyne FLIR family it tops the ladder above the PackBot 525 (26 kg) and the Centaur (73 kg). Poland's heavy EOD platform, the 300 kg PIAP IBIS, lifts 50 kg – a third of the Kobra's capacity at greater weight.
