Throwflame, an Ohio-based flamethrower manufacturer, has released what it says is the first-ever robot dog with a flamethrower attached for remote firestarting.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -

The company says the flamethrowing platform can be used for wildfire management, prescribed agricultural burns, snow and ice removal, or even entertainment special effects. A voiceover can be heard saying, “I am become death, destroyer of worlds,” as the Thermonator launches an arc of flame. The quote, most famously uttered by nuclear physicist and Manhattan Project leader J. Robert Oppenheimer, comes from the Bhagavad Gita, a piece of Hindu scripture.
