A FLAMETHROWING robodog has gone on sale in the US capable of blasting a hellish blaze up to 30ft long.
The aptly named Thermonator is the world’s first ever flamethrower-wielding robot dog, according to creators Throwflame.
This four-legged fiery metal beast also has laser sighting to navigate environments.
It can be controlled remotely by the owner using Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
And the onboard battery lasts an hour.
But watch out as the robodog may burn a hole through your wallet too.
Ohio-based Throwflame have announced the hot bot is now on sale for $9,420 (£7,610) and available for purchase by the general public and government agencies such as the military.
They say it can be used to deliver “on-demand fire anywhere”.
However, the firm has cautiously framed Thermonator as not being a weapon – despite flamethrowers being defined as such in some countries like the UK where they’re prohibited.
Instead, Throwflame claims the device is useful for wildfire control and prevention, agricultural management, ecological conservation, snow and ice removal, or just for entertainment.
Footage of the canine was posted on the company’s website showing it run through woodland and snow-filled settings blasting a stream of flames.
According to the company, flamethrowers are federally unregulated tools in the US and are not considered a firearm by the BATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives).
