Here at Eurosatory in Paris, we are presenting the future of unmanned ground vehicle mobility. The war in Ukraine has made the case. The battlefield is changing faster than ever before because drones, electronic warfare and autonomous systems are fundamentally transforming the role of mechanized forces. First-generation UGVs were small, slow, electric, expendable. That baseline is shifting. Payloads are increasing, missions growing more complex, and heavier payloads require conventional propulsion: fuel-compatible, free from battery weight penalties and resupply constraints. The centerpiece of our booth is a next-generation heavy UGV concept developed together with Patria, combining their modular TRACKX vehicle platform with RENK's digital mobility architecture. It demonstrates controlled unmanned mobility for the 10-to-20-tonne vehicle class, for scenarios where crew presence is operationally impossible or tactically unacceptable. At the heart of it: the RENK HSWL 076. ➡️ The HSWL 076 is the first drive-by-wire-capable transmission approved for road use that could be deployed by NATO forces. The showcase demonstrates how this drivetrain enables remote and autonomous vehicle control without platform redesign. The same architecture supports driver assistance, platooning, crew-sharing across operator positions, and loyal wingman configurations, for manned, optionally unmanned, and purpose-built unmanned platforms. RENK's position in the unmanned mobility market is not tied to a single vehicle or OEM. The HSWL 076 is a platform-agnostic building block, certified and in service today, transferable across programs and nations. Come see it for yourself at Eurosatory this week.
