Military applications

edit
  • Squad Mission Support System (SMSS), uses the Land Tamer vehicle as a robotic military support vehicle. The SMSS decreases the amount of time a soldier has to spend controlling robotic systems by providing vehicles with a greater perception of their surroundings on the battlefield and allow vehicles to follow a soldier across terrain, allowing payload to be available whenever it is required. It is designed to provide manned and unmanned transport and logistical support to Light and Early Entry Forces.
  • Mine Stalker is used as a remote controlled system designed to detect and mark anti-tank mines. It consists of a remote control commercial platform fitted with ground penetrating radar (GPR) to produce radar imaging of targets.
