Credits: MBDA.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Manufactured by European technology company Milrem, the Tracked Hybrid Modular Infantry System (THeMIS) has proven popular in recent years. The platform\u2019s modular design enables it to be used for a range of missions from transport through explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) to offensive abilities and more.<\/p>\n<p>Clocking in at 2.4m long and 2m wide, the almost-square UGV can carry a 750kg payload at speeds of 25km\/h up to 1.5km away from its operator. It also comes in two colours, green and sand, to blend into different backgrounds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brimstone Missiles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In response to the British Army\u2019s \u2018Prototype Warfare\u2019 push, MBDA Missile Systems showcased a THeMIS UGV fitted with a Brimstone missile system capable of carrying six missiles per vehicle. The MBDA system uses digital targeting data to allow the operator to fire the UGV\u2019s payload on line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight targets.<\/p>\n<p>MBDA UK Head of Land Domain Sales and Business Development Andy Allen said: \u201cThis cassette magazine, with its high weapon loadout, is optimised to counter mass armour. Pairing the combat-proven MBDA Brimstone missile with a flexible and mission deployed UGV such as the Milrem Robotics\u2019 THeMIS provides the tactical commander with the capability to rapidly and remotely deliver high volumes of precision anti-armour effects, importantly in all weathers, against all known DAS and at extended ranges.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>MBDA said equipping the UGV with the Brimstone highlighted the missile\u2019s \u2018One Missile, Multi-Platform\u2019 design. The UGV-mounted Brimstone is capable of targeting using radar and semi-active laser systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Javelin Missile<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-221526 size-medium alignright\" title=\"Credits: Kongsberg. \" src=\"http:\/\/www.army-technology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/09\/vlcsnap-2019-09-05-10h06m58s111-450x340.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"340\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the run-up to DSEI, Kongsberg showcased a Javelin missile being fired on the move from a THeMIS platform. The company had a UGV on its stand fitted with both the missile system and a conventional .50 calibre machine gun.<\/p>\n<p>During the tests, Kongsberg fired both the missile and the machine gun showcasing the offensive capabilities of the UGV system. Kongsberg Defence &amp; Aerospace AS executive vice president P\u00e5l Bratlie said: \u201cThe combination of a wireless and remotely controlled weapon system, integrated on an unmanned vehicle, introduces capabilities that will secure our soldiers\u2019 mission and safety to an even greater extent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Javelin was fired from the UGV using fire control technology developed by QinetiQ to allow for remote and wireless operation of the system. The company called the event \u2018ground-breaking\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Milrem Robotics CEO Kuldar V\u00e4\u00e4rsi praised the range of uses for his companies THeMIS UGV saying: \u201cCombing unmanned ground vehicles with modern weapon systems will bring disruptive capabilities to the battlefield. Milrem Robotics has experienced this effect already with several armies using the THeMIS with an integrated heavy machine gun. Adding such a capable antitank missile as the Javelin will significantly increase the disruptive effect\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>GroundEye for EOD<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-221523  alignright\" title=\"Credits: Milrem Robotics. \" src=\"http:\/\/www.army-technology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/09\/GroundEye-green-650x466-450x340.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"315\" height=\"238\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The UGV\u2019s versatility allows for explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) applications. Developed in partnership with Raytheon\u2019s UK division GroundEye allows for day or night detection of IEDs, mines and other explosive ordnance.<\/p>\n<p>THeMIS equipped with GroundEye can geotag the location of threats, allowing operators to neutralise them before they cause damage. With the system mounted on an unmanned vehicle, operators can work at a safe distance.<\/p>\n<p>The system locates explosive threats using a mix of ground-penetrating radar, command wire detection and more, with the THeMIS-mounted version equipped with an EOD arm to disarm dangers from a distance.<\/p>\n<p>Raytheon did not have GroundEye on show at DSEI as the product was announced far earlier at 2016\u2019s Eurosatory in Paris.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ADDER RWS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-221525  alignright\" title=\"Credits: Milrem Robotics. \" src=\"http:\/\/www.army-technology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/09\/STK_Adder_green-650x511-450x340.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"324\" height=\"245\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Built for the Estonian Defence Forces by ST Kinetic, the ADDER was the first weapons system to be mounted on THeMIS.<\/p>\n<p>Featuring a stabilised gun and lock-on targeting, the system proved the ability of the UGV to carry a weapons systems paving the way for heavier-duty weaponry.<\/p>\n<p>The ADDER Remote Weapons System allowed the UGV to be fitted with a range of weapons from general-purpose machine guns to 40mm grenade launchers, transmitting live feeds from a range of cameras that work at night and day with a laser ranger fire for increased accuracy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Search and Rescue equipment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-221524  alignright\" title=\"Credits: Milrem Robotics. \" src=\"http:\/\/www.army-technology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/09\/Sinrob_firefighting-650x466-450x340.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"338\" height=\"255\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Milrem is also developing THeMIS\u2019s search and rescue capabilities for civilian and defence purposes.
