Numo Robotics has expanded the capabilities of its Numo ground robotic complex with interchangeable modules for logistics, engineering tasks, and combat applications.
According to «Military», the executive director of Numo Robotics Nazar Pryymak spoke about the modular concept. The platform in the basic configuration carries up to 300 kg, and the curb weight of the complex is approximately 620 kg. The range is declared at 25 km, and with additional batteries it can reach 40 km. The maximum speed is up to 7 km/h, but when installing modules it decreases, at the same time the company emphasizes that this dynamics is usually enough to perform tasks.
A separate direction is protection and survivability. For some units, a mounted reservation has been developed as a separate kit that can be installed for a specific mission and quickly dismantled. The company also offers the integration of additional electronic warfare systems and camouflage capes that should reduce the thermal visibility of the complex. For work on dangerous routes, anti-mine trawls are provided, designed to detonate anti-personnel mines.
The logistics kit at the base includes rigging for securing cargo, but the key addition is the dump truck module. It allows cargo to be delivered and dumped at a designated point remotely, so that the military does not have to go out to unload. The company notes that the same approach can be applied to engineering tasks, in particular for laying anti-tank mines of the TM type.
For the installation of non-explosive barriers, an automatic barbed wire deployment module has been prepared: the complex can remotely deploy up to 50 meters of a spiral with blades. In parallel, Numo Robotics is working on a tow truck module, which should allow other unmanned platforms that have failed to be towed from their positions.
The combat configuration is also developing: Numo has already integrated DevDroid solutions for PKT (KT-7.62) or 12.7 mm M2 Browning machine guns, and separate work is underway to integrate the module with the Mk-19 automatic grenade launcher.
Previously, dev.ua wrote about how the Ukrainian company «Tank Bureau», which specializes in the development, production and support of ground robotic complexes, created the NUMO drone, which can transport up to 300 kg of cargo.
