In 2018, Patria demonstrated its unmanned heavy ground vehicle capabilities with two Patria AMV 8×8 vehicles at European Land Robots Trial (ELROB) in Belgium.

The new unmanned solution can be integrated into new Patria AMVXP, Patria 6×6 vehicles and the existing delivered AMV 8x8s.

Last month, Patria won a contract to deliver an AMV 8×8 System Platform vehicle to Saab for demonstration and marketing purposes.

Once delivered, the latest generation of Saab vehicle electronics and video systems will be tested using the vehicle.

Separately, Patria and Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace partnered for the future US Army turreted mortar programmes.
