The scope of the multi-year campaign is to explore RAS technology to update the Italian Army’s RAS strategy and outline an implementation roadmap for introducing unmanned systems and related technology into service.
Milrem Robotics will support the Italian Army in developing a clear path to how RAS technology, systems, and architectures can generate operational advantages and ground armed forces benefits when operating in urbanized environments.
The Italian CD&E level of ambition is to exploit prototyping skills and technological capabilities to demonstrate future operational benefits and finally, to identify short to mid-term (5-15 years) transformational initiatives to develop operational RAS capabilities.
The scope of the cooperation is to capture, analyze and deliver decision support data from all stages of the experimentation process, stemming from field activities such as war-gaming, modeling & simulation, and innovative technologies that will respond to the challenges set forth by the problem statement.
The deliverables of the contract include
Milrem Robotics is the leading European robotics and autonomous systems developer and integrator. The company is known for its THeMIS and Multiscope Unmanned Ground Vehicles and the Type-X Robotic Combat Vehicle. The THeMIS supports dismounted troops, while the Multiscope is intended for civilian use such as forestry and firefighting. The Type-X Robotic Combat Vehicle is a wingman for mechanized units.
Milrem Robotics is the leader of a consortium that was recently awarded 30.6M (EUR) from the European Commission’s European Defence Industrial Development Programme (EDIDP) to develop a European standardized unmanned ground system (UGS).
During the project titled iMUGS, modular and scalable architecture for hybrid manned-unmanned systems will be developed to standardize a European-wide ecosystem.
