RCV-L unmanned ground combat vehicle is a compact, diesel/electric hybrid unit.
To support ground combat missions, the United States Army is currently developing an unmanned ground combat vehicle (RCV-L). It is a small, hybrid diesel-electric vehicle that weighs in at 10 tons and can carry 7,000 pounds. It can travel up to 40 mph and is equipped with a remote-operated weapons station. After eight months of hard work, it was delivered to the GVSC in November 2020. This vehicle will be an asset in ground combat vehicle formations and is an important milestone in the industry/government partnership.
It is used for transporting ground troops and their fire support personnel.
The US Army has announced it will start testing a robotic combat car (RCV) in July 2019. The RCV can carry ground force personnel, fire support equipment, and fire support equipment. It is capable of performing high-speed and high-capacity operations, which should make it useful in military operations.
It can hit 40 mph
A robotic combat vehicle can reach speeds of 40 mph, carry up 7200 pounds of payload and can navigate rough terrain. You could equip it with remote-operated weapons and sensors. A control vehicle would accompany the vehicle. It would move behind multiple RCVs and provide input to the soldiers controlling each vehicle, such as how to maneuver around obstacles and respond to contact.
It is equipped with armor to withstand machine gun fire as well as artillery shells.
The RCV can be operated alongside manned tanks. It serves as wingman protection for vehicles moving closer to the target. It must be tough enough for the same attack intensity as a tank. The bigger variant is more armored and has a bigger weapons package.
It is equipped with a remote turret
The robotic combat car (RCV), which is small and unmanned, has a remote turret that can fire other weapons. It was jointly developed by British multinational defense technology company QinetiQ Group (UK) and Pratt Miller Defence (US). Its remote-controlled turret will enable it to fire on targets upto 1.5 miles away.
Milrem Robotics has been developing it
Milrem Robotics in Europe is a leading robotics company that is working on a robotic combat vehicle. The THeMIS-Observe unmanned ground vehicle from Milrem Robotics is designed to increase standoff distance and tactical unit response time. The vehicle features remote-controlled, self stabilizing weapon systems. You can equip it with heavy and light machine guns, grenade launchesers, and anti-tank missile system.
