The THeMIS Combat is designed to support military missions in high-threat environments by allowing threats to be identified and engaged remotely, before troops are exposed. As a key component of the Forward Line of Robotics, it helps neutralise enemy assets and build momentum that ground forces can leverage with reduced risk and fewer casualties.
“Integrating robotic systems into combat formations allows military units to enhance their operational effectiveness significantly,” said Patrick Shepherd, Chief Sales Officer at Milrem Robotics. “Unmanned systems like the THeMIS Combat extend the reach and capability of existing units, enabling them to achieve more with fewer resources and greater protection.”
Equipped with the LOKI RCWS, the THeMIS Combat combines precise firepower with tactical flexibility. LOKI supports weapon calibres from 5.56mm up to 12.7mm and is capable of engaging targets effectively at ranges of up to 2000 metres.
Beyond direct fire capabilities, the LOKI system can also perform in a counter-unmanned aerial systems (CUAS) role, broadening its operational utility. Its compact design, together with the high payload capacity of the THeMIS UGV, allows for integration of extra mission equipment and supplies, easing both logistical strain and cognitive load on dismounted troops.
Together, the THeMIS Combat and LOKI RCWS highlight the strategic benefits of unmanned systems in modern warfare. These technologies enhance force protection, expand battlefield reach, and increase overall mission success in complex combat scenarios.
