Kongsberg reported that the vehicle’s systems were fully integrated using its Integrated Combat Solution (ICS), which connects all mission-critical components into a unified operational framework. “Utilising the Integrated Combat Solution (ICS) as the digital backbone, everything was connected into one holistic system,” the company stated.
The demonstration illustrated the ACV’s capability to deliver real-time sensor fusion, precise targeting, and heightened situational awareness across threat domains. Kongsberg emphasised the increasing importance of such connected platforms in modern military operations.
Counter-unmanned aerial systems (C-UAS) were a key focus of the presentation, reflecting Kongsberg’s expanding work in this area. “Counter UAS is a high focus within KONGSBERG and with the already operational Typhon system in Ukraine and several other ongoing projects we have gained experience, and this was shown to customers, partners and competitors,” the company said.
The live demonstration was the result of a close partnership between Kongsberg and Northrop Grumman, involving months of integration work and testing. “The successful demonstration was the result of intensive preparation, long days of development, thorough testing, and close collaboration,” Kongsberg noted.
Although no new contracts were announced during the event, the strong interest generated by the ACV’s performance positions it well for future U.S. Marine Corps modernisation programmes. Kongsberg concluded, “We are proud to continue advancing technology that strengthens defence and security globally.”
