These tasks are often carried out in difficult terrain and require the use of work attachments with significant lifting capacities. This determines the necessity of equipping robots with a suspension of a special design adapted to the function they perform. The paper presents the hydropneumatic suspension system of the Engineering Support Robot (RWI) and its model, along with the results of simulation studies.The robotization of the modern battlefield has become a dominant direction in the development of the national armed forces of many countries. The primary task of Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) is to increase the distance between the soldier and the threat. One of the areas of application for robots is tasks related to the removal and neutralization of Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) and Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) [3, 4, 11]. Often, IEDs and UXOs are located off paved roads (rubble, wilderness, etc. (…)
