THeMIS
A modular tracked unmanned ground vehicle for combat support, logistics, and casualty evacuation. Deployed in Ukraine and in service with nine NATO members. The platform weighs around 1,500 kg and can carry payloads up to 750 kg. It supports multiple mission configurations including ISR, route clearance, and CBRN detection. Over 200 units have been delivered to armed forces worldwide.
VECTOR
A robotic combat vehicle that fights alongside tanks and infantry vehicles as an autonomous wingman, delivering IFV-level firepower with no crew on board. VECTOR can be armed with 30mm cannons and anti-tank missiles. It uses AI-based target detection and can operate in GPS-denied environments. Designed to reduce risk to soldiers in high-threat combat zones.
HAVOC
An 8x8 wheeled robotic combat vehicle capable of 110 km/h, carrying up to 5 tonnes of weapons payload including 30mm systems. HAVOC bridges the gap between tracked UGVs and traditional armoured vehicles, offering road speed with cross-country mobility. Its modular architecture supports rapid reconfiguration between anti-armour, air defence, and fire support roles.
Type-X Robotic Combat Vehicle
Milrem's flagship next-generation unmanned fighting vehicle. The Type-X weighs approximately 12 tonnes and is designed to operate as part of a combined arms team. It can mount medium-calibre turrets up to 50mm and carry anti-tank guided missiles. Production is planned from the €5.5M facility in Tallinn with first deliveries expected to NATO customers.
