The vehicle will incorporate an increased payload and provide enhanced situational awareness, autonomy and include navigation capabilities. It will be intensified to include various advanced control solutions that will aid in independent decision making.

In addition the vehicle features advanced operational flexibility, which enables the system to provide combat support in various scenarios.

G-NIUS chief executive officer Erez Peled said the development of the future-generation UGV significantly contributes to security missions in the modern combat field.

The next-generation UGV is based on the performance of the G-NIUS Guardium, a teleoperated UGV which is controlled remotely by an operator through a communications link.
