This paper presents an analysis of various natural and man-made disasters being angled as possibilities of usage of remote control or autonomous machines and vehicles. The certain requirements which such machines and vehicles have to meet to remove effects of natural disasters and local military conflicts or terrorist attacks are described. Proposal for remote-controlled vehicle assigned for operations in conditions hazardous to human live is presented. The value of unmanned vehicles is directly related to the applications to which it can be successfully applied. This paper will highlight applications, missions, and capabilities that have been demonstrated on the "Lewiatan " platform to date as well as future application and mission considerations. This platform – assigned for both water and land operations - is equipped with remote control, surroundings observation and visualization systems. In this paper the advantages of hydrostatic power systems as the power transmission units for unmanned vehicles have been also presented. Resolving problems with navigation of vehicles will allow expansion of it 's applications from a military point of view in the upcoming few years, to a wide range of applications in times of crisis with direct human life threat.
