Rostec showcases TORVAT AGM batteries for drone and vehicle power

Bottom line

Rostec's RT-Project Technologies and NPP Impuls demonstrated TORVAT AGM batteries that survive cutting and maintain charge via glass-fiber adsorbed electrolyte, intended for military power needs including drones and vehicles.

Why it matters

Durable, cut-resistant power sources enhance the survivability and operational reliability of Russian drone swarms and ground robots in contested environments.

Rostec partners RT-Project Technologies and NPP Impuls showcased TORVAT AGM batteries at a public exhibition, highlighting their resilience: cells survive being cut while maintaining charge through a glass-fiber adsorbed electrolyte. This technology supports the broader Russian military push for durable power sources for drones and ground vehicles, complementing existing reports of TOPBAT AGM batteries being integrated into unmanned systems and armored platforms.

    🗓 Распиленный аккумулятор Ростеха держит заряд уже 4 месяца. В ходе экспериментов над аккумуляторами ТОРВАТ в рамках проекта #НашКраш выяснилось, что, если от этого источника питания отрезать (в прямом смысле слова) внушительную часть, он все равно продолжит работать. И не минуты
