It\u2019s remote controlled and operated using a small joystick that follows troops on patrol, according Rob Hodges, vice president of Army programs for HDT Global.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Hunter-Wolf2.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Hunter-Wolf2.jpg.jpg 480w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Hunter-Wolf2.jpg.jpg?resize=225,300 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Hunter Wolf vehicle is operated by joystick and can carry 1,000 lbs for 60 miles.

However, during an Army assessment last month at Fort Benning, Georgia, the Hunter Wolf drove 60 miles in 40 hours, Hodges said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Hunter Wolf is capable of carrying 1,000 lbs of equipment in support of a squad-sized element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The vehicle is a hybrid and boasts a 20-gallon fuel tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HDT Global plans to make the vehicle full tele-operational in the future, meaning the vehicle can be operated by a soldier in the rear and not actively on patrol, Hodges said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Hunter Wolf is the latest iteration of potential Army robotic vehicles designed to reduce loads and support U.S. troops on the battlefield.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Hunter Wolf is capable of carrying 1,000 lbs of equipment in support of a squad-sized
