IAI is launching an autonomous ground system designed to assist ground forces

The Israeli Aerospace Industry is launching an autonomous ground system designed to assist ground forces in combat on a variety of operational missions and reduces the risk to combatant lives in complex terrain conditions. The REX MK2, which is sold to customers worldwide, is an unmanned ground vehicle adapted to a variety of ground missions with extremely high terrain offenses, with a load carrying capacity of 1.3 tons and designed to support field forces and assist them in carrying out their missions. The new tool, which will assist the combat forces in gathering intelligence, logistical support and closing remote attack circles, is a hybrid electric, and has all-wheel drive. The tool can be used on land, is autonomous with control and monitoring capabilities by one operator via wireless communication.
The multi-tasking REX MK2 is designed to support ground forces on foot in the various stages of combat including logistical assistance to soldiers and carrying supplies of armament, medical equipment, water and food, as well as evacuating casualties using a stretcher and with essential medical equipment. Gathering intelligence by a situational awareness system that includes electro-optical sensing capabilities and radar. The REX MK2 also allows for closing attack collection circuits using a remote-controlled weapon system for a 7.62 and 0.5 machine gun. For a team close to power.
The new REX MK2 is added to the family of operational autonomous tools developed in the aerospace industry, including: the Jaguar - an operational ground autonomous tool for border protection, information gathering and closing a circle; RobARC - an operational autonomous tool for detecting and destroying surface and buried cargo; The 'Robatl' - an operational robotic ground vehicle with high maneuverability and offense, which performs complex tasks in difficult conditions, quickly and efficiently; RobDozer - bulldozers converted to autonomous in order to perform complex engineering tasks in threatened areas.
Zvika Yarom, Director of the Land Plant, IAI: "At the basis of IAI's land concept is the need to assist the ground forces in the field to carry out their various missions with minimal risk to the lives of the fighters. "And we transferred it to the land world as part of the company's strategy to expand its activities in the land field.
IAI's vision of land perception rests on three principles: situational awareness, survival and lethality. Through a combination of advanced technologies, the systems are able to detect the threat, activate active and passive safeguards and close the circuit in real time autonomously. IAI's Elta Division, Israel's Intelligence and Radar House, develops groundbreaking and strategic systems such as mission aircraft, national cyber arrays, robotic and terrestrial autonomous systems, glider protection, homeland defense systems and more. IAI is a national and global technological knowledge hub. In the areas of air defense, radar, satellites, unmanned aerial vehicles, civil aviation and cyber.
