Milrem Robotics, Europe’s leading robotics and autonomous systems developer and Digital Bit, the Romanian manufacturer and supplier of world-class defence systems, have joined forces to address the country’s growing need for advanced combat robotics solutions.
As a first step, the companies have combined Milrem Robotics’ THeMIS Unmanned Ground Vehicle with Digital Bits AGIL® Remote-Controlled Weapon Station, which will be presented at the Black Sea Defense, Aerospace and Security exhibition, which will take place May 22–24, 2024, in Bucharest.
“We are thrilled to announce this partnership with Digital Bit,” said Patrick Shepherd, Chief Sales Officer at Milrem Robotics. “Together, we are combining our strengths to deliver state-of-the-art robotics solutions that will meet the complex needs of modern defence operations,” Shepherd added.
“The AGIL® Remote Controlled Weapon Station is efficient and user-friendly,” says Bogdan Bărbulescu, Managing Director of Digital Bit. “AGIL’s capabilities are encapsulated in a very good price-performance ratio.”
THeMIS Combat UGVs provide direct fire support for manoeuvre forces and act as a force multiplier. With an integrated self-stabilizing remote-controlled weapon system, they provide high precision over wide areas, day and night, increasing stand-off distance, force protection and survivability. Combat UGVs can be equipped with light or heavy machine guns and Anti-Tank Missile Systems.
In addition, Milrem Robotics has named Digital Bit as their agent in Romania.
Milrem Robotics is the world’s leading robotics and autonomous systems developer and systems integrator, with offices in Estonia, Finland, Sweden, the Netherlands, and the US. The company is known for its THeMIS and Multiscope UGVs, the Type-X Robotic Combat Vehicle, and MIFIK.
