About

About MRCV

MRCV is a 12.5-tonne hybrid-electric robotic combat vehicle carrying mission payloads up to five tonnes. The protected chassis reaches 80 kilometres per hour on roads and 50 kilometres per hour off road, climbs one-metre steps and fords water to 1.5 metres.

Payload options include 25–30-millimetre weapon stations, loitering-munition launchers, mine rollers and minelayers. The vehicle is designed to support tanks and infantry fighting vehicles through reconnaissance, flanking, engineering and fire-support missions. Milrem provides long-range communications and modular upgrade paths.
