Named Integrated Modular Unmanned Ground System, or iMUGS, the project uses Milrem\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2020\/11\/06\/estonian-robotics-company-makes-inroads-with-european-armies\/\">THeMIS<\/a> vehicle as a reference platform for creating a \u201cstandardized European-wide ecosystem for aerial and ground platforms,\u201d according to the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also covered by the project is relevant technology in the fields of command and control, communications, sensors, payloads, and algorithms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The connection to the European Union\u2019s coffers comes through the bloc\u2019s European Defence Industrial Development Programme. Besides Estonia as the lead, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Latvia and Spain also are part of the iMUGS group, adding a combined \u20ac2 million (U.S. $2.4 million) to the effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The countries each bring their relevant national companies to the table, including Safran Electronics &amp; Defense, Nexter Systems, Krauss-Maffei Wegmann, Diehl Defence, and Bittium Wireless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEstonia has the honor and a great responsibility taking the lead in this project as nothing on a similar scale has been conducted before,\u201d said Martin J\u00f5esaar, chief of the project office in the Estonian Centre for Defence Investment. \u201cOur goal is not only making iMUGS a one-time effort, but to build it into a base project for future developments. Our long-term goal is that each of the modular systems built will pave a way for further innovation in its field.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the sums involved in iMUGS are relatively small in the world of defense programs, the effort has the potential to shape the European market for military robotic vehicles. The initiative is a prime example of defense companies like Milrem, some of them years ago, sensing a chance to position their own offerings firmly in the thicket of European defense priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the THeMIS robot is not the only game in town. Rheinmetall is equally trying to position its unmanned portfolio in the European market, even without EU backing. In the case of its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2020\/11\/29\/rheinmetall-unveils-new-ground-robot-for-armed-reconnaissance\/\">Mission Master<\/a> vehicle, the intellectual property belongs to the company\u2019s Canadian division, which makes support through EU channels tricky. Still, the vehicle is being tried by the land forces of several countries on the European continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Milrem, European countries are expected to need thousands of ground robots during the next 10-15 years, creating a market valued in the billions of euros. \u201cWith seven participating nations and key industrial players, the unmanned ground system developed during iMUGS is expected to become the preferred European solution for integrating into armed units,\u201d the company claims.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
