It cannot be disabled, merely being destroyed in the first place.
However, like most vehicles, it can regenerate its health. It also has very little armor to protect itself - it can be destroyed by one shot from either a SMAW or an RPG-7V2 rocket, and takes significant damage from small arms. The operator will also need to beware of obstacles while using the EOD Bot, as they might get the EOD Bot temporary stuck. The EOD Bot will be affected by terrain, especially in rocky places, where the bot will be almost impossible to control properly. The small size and speed of the EOD Bot makes it very useful for rushing to objectives, as it can move through secluded areas quickly, but the speed of the Bot is negated slightly by the loud motor noise of the Bot, and the fact that it is difficult to control, constantly oversteering at slower speeds and understeering at higher speeds. The primary roles of the EOD Bot are to repair friendly vehicles, dispose of enemy explosives, and to arm/disarm M-COM.
It has to be deployed on flat ground, similar to the MAV. The EOD Bot is a gadget featured in Battlefield 3, issued to the Engineer kit. 'A remotely controlled Explosive Ordinance Disposal robot allows the engineer to repair and damage vehicles like a normal repair tool, but can also arm and disarm explosives and MCOM stations in Rush.
