ABOUT iMUGS2
Following the success of iMUGS, the iMUGS1 Consortium is proud to continue with the follow-up European Defence Fund (EDF) Call EDF-2024-DA-GROUND-UGS-STEP.
The iMUGS2 project aims to develop an unmanned ground system capable of manned-unmanned and unmanned-unmanned teaming with other robotic unmanned platforms and manned infantry vehicles to provide them full battlefield support.
Consortium:
Thanks to the success of iMUGS, the majority of participating companies chose to continue with iMUGS2. Over a dozen new companies have joined the consortium. Each is high-level in its respective fields of business. Together, they provide a good balance between innovators and experts. The iMUGS2 consortium is represented by companies from all 15 participating member states.
Building on the success of iMUGS, iMUGS2 will advance European security through robust industrial collaboration across the continent. The project will facilitate the development of a standardized open architecture, ensuring interoperability and seamless integration of defence solutions among member states. Leveraging cutting-edge European technology and expertise in combination with the utilization of other ongoing EU projects, iMUGS2 will strengthen the European defence industrial base, enhancing strategic autonomy and reducing dependency on non-European technologies.
The consortium, comprising leading companies from all participating member states, brings extensive experience meeting diverse military requirements. This pan-European collaboration will enhance the defence capabilities of individual member states and contribute to the collective security of the European Union.
Benefits of iMUGS2 for the European Union
iMUGS2 will focus on the practical implementation of mature, ready-to-deploy solutions that are easy to procure and tailored to each member state’s specific needs. This approach ensures rapid deployment and operational readiness, significantly contributing to Europe’s defence preparedness. Additionally, the project will drive innovation, create jobs, and foster new skills within the European defence industry, further cementing Europe’s position as a leader in global defence capabilities.
