Robocow was a low box shaped robot that competed in Series 3 of Robot Wars. It lost in its only battle against General Carnage. The robot originally had a head, but it was removed due to weight constraints, in similar circumstances to Cerberus in the following war. The head was made by Carol Udale, who was a relation to the team. They planned to enter the Fourth War with Son of Robocow (concept design found here http://web.ukonline.co.uk/robocow/sonofrobocow.htm) but they failed to qualify. The team also entered Extreme 1 with The Spider.

Robocow started rather slowly in its battle against General Carnage. It then bounced off its opponent and almost drove down the pit, but managed to steer away.

"Oh, dairy, dairy me..."
— Another of Jonathan Pearce's puns, this on on Robocow's poor performance..

General Carnage then came in behind Robocow and got its lifting arm and claw under Robocow and managed to lift Robocow up and drag it across the arena floor. After getting stuck on an arena spike, Robocow was pushed towards Matilda, who used her chainsaw on the top armour, after which Robocow seemed to have stopped moving for some time. It did manage to move across the arena floor, but very sluggishly. Eventually Robocow was pushed near a CPZ and Sir Killalot flipped it over. Shunt then spent the remainder of the battle causing damage to Robocow's exposed machinery.
