Overview
- The state inaugurated the first stage of its C5i with an investment of about one billion pesos.
- Authorities described the center as a “brain of intelligence” that links drones, patrols, a tactical plane and a helicopter, with an antidrone dome still in development.
- During the launch, officials presented a quadruped robot carrying a 5.56 AR-15 and outfitted with cameras and sensors for use in risky entries such as houses or confined areas.
- The public security chief said the weapon can be actuated remotely to help neutralize armed groups and clear areas before officers arrive.
- Reporting identifies the platform as resembling the Chinese-made Unitree B2, with manufacturer-listed endurance of roughly 4–6 hours, speeds up to about 6 m/s, and high load capacity, and notes Zacatecas joins places like Zapopan and Chihuahua in adopting similar security robots.
