Direct proof of use
KVERTUS AD BERSERK was reported in Ukrainian wartime deployment in July 2025 as a ground-based robotic electronic-warfare system for countering enemy drones. UNITED24 Media described the system as entering serial production in Ukraine after field testing and said it was used to suppress enemy drones and protect troops at the front.
Ukrainska Pravda, citing Kvertus chief executive Yaroslav Filimonov, separately reported that the company was launching mass production of the AD Berserk electronic-warfare robot and was working on dozens of orders. That report listed front-line casualty evacuation, mine-clearance cover, assault-operation support, and logistics-route protection among the robot's stated tasks.

Timeline
On July 21, 2025, Ukrainian reporting tied AD Berserk to field testing, serial production, and front-line missions. The same day, Ukrainska Pravda reported the manufacturer's launch of mass production and quoted the CEO's statement that the system could create interference across ranges used by kamikaze drones, bomber drones, and multirotor drones.
The available public record supports a mid-2025 fielding and production milestone. It does not give a precise unit, front sector, or first combat incident for AD Berserk.

Narrative
AD Berserk's documented conflict role was counter-drone electronic warfare on a remotely controlled tracked ground platform. The manufacturer describes the system as a radio-controlled self-propelled platform that carries anti-drone EW equipment into dangerous locations, while the conflict-use reporting frames the battlefield purpose as drone suppression and troop protection.
The role reported for Ukraine combines electronic attack, force protection, and support functions. Public descriptions emphasize jamming of control and video links used by FPV, multirotor, and bomber drones, while the platform's mission set places the EW payload near exposed routes, demining teams, assault groups, evacuation points, and logistics movements.
The sources distinguish the system's deployment and production status from specific battlefield effects. They support that AD Berserk was fielded and ordered for Ukrainian front-line use, but they do not independently document a named engagement, casualty evacuation, or individual drone defeat attributable to the system.
