A Trump-linked startup is sending humanoid robots to the Ukraine battlefield

Foundation Future Industries, a San Francisco startup founded in 2024, sent two Phantom MK-1 humanoid robots to Ukraine for a pilot demo.

The company plans to build upgraded models, including Phantom 2, for military logistics and other battlefield tasks.

It hopes to begin broader testing with the U.S. military within 18 months and has already won government research contracts.

The effort highlights humanoid robots moving into warfare, while Eric Trump’s advisory role has drawn political criticism.
