Convoy Operations with Manned-unMAnNeD Systems

/in , , , /by

COMMANDS addresses the requirement of military unmanned ground vehicles to operate not only in controlled paved surfaces, but also in unstructured environments, facing degraded or denied satellite signal and communications scenarios where the development of Computer Based Processing Technologies, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence provide game changing Intelligent Capabilities. The Technology Demonstrator Programme includes both a laboratory demonstrator and a real scenario Mobile Demonstrator centered around the used case of a Last Kilometre Re-supply Convoy with Force Protection. The capability services architecture are common to manned and unmanned platforms. enabling seamless, standard transition from manned to unmanned.

Goal
The COMMANDS project aims to develop Through Life Capabilities (TLC) for agile, intelligent and cooperative Manned and Unmanned Land Systems. These Capabilities will be based on a variety of state-of-the-art UGV Technologies solutions that will provide seamless functional services across integrated modular open architectures. The answer to the UGVT call is based on a solid Systems Engineering process supported by a Technology Demonstrator and a Business Case, that will ensure early de-risking as well as potential early exploitation of technologies directly addressing a roadmap of self-reliant EU Defence TLC sustainable development. The results will not only enable to upgrade current ground vehicles of the EU inventory for specific missions, but also to be integrated in future vehicles in development.
