It's a delightful PR gimmick by a most definitely not a tech company, since there's not much cutting edge technology going on in the world of "flamethrowers are perfectly legal in America and that's our business model".

In addition to strapping a flamethrower to a generic quadruped robot, they also strapped one to a drone.
