Poland’s defense sector is enhancing its capabilities in unmanned systems with the introduction of an advanced modular reconnaissance robot, recently showcased to NATO officials. This innovative development comes from a collaboration between WITPiS, Chema DS, and Forcepol sp. z o.o.
At the heart of this new system is the KUNA Unmanned Land Weapon System, engineered to work in synergy with the RAVEN drone. This coordinated duo enables seamless ground-air operations, reflecting Poland’s commitment to improving its technological edge in defense.
The KUNA system is equipped with sophisticated Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensors, high-quality cameras, and various onboard detection technologies. These features empower the robot to navigate challenging environments autonomously, outperforming traditional wheeled vehicles in difficult terrains. The system’s enhanced capabilities are particularly crucial for military operations where precision and versatility are paramount.
This initiative comes as Poland seeks to bolster its defense readiness amid evolving security challenges in Europe. By incorporating drones into their ground operations, Polish forces aim to improve reconnaissance and combat efficacy, ensuring that they can adapt to a rapidly changing battlefield.
The introduction of this modular reconnaissance robot is a significant step forward for Poland’s defense industry and showcases the country’s commitment to advancing its technological capabilities in the realm of unmanned systems.
