Gridbots Technologies Successfully Completes NCNC Trials of ZEUS HITMAN Autonomous Ground Vehicle

Gridbots Technologies has achieved a significant milestone by successfully completing the 'No Cost, No Commitment' (NCNC) trials of its advanced autonomous ground vehicle, the ZEUS HITMAN, at a firing range. Designed for high-precision combat operations, this unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) features level 5 autonomy, allowing it to operate independently in complex outdoor environments.

A key highlight of the HITMAN is its integration with the KATANA Remote Controlled Weapon Station (RCWS), enhancing its ability to track and engage targets remotely with high accuracy. The system also demonstrated real-time tracking, drone detection, and precision targeting, reinforcing its status as one of the most advanced weapon stations in the world.

Gridbots' Autonomous Weapon Station (AWS) KATANA successfully completed separate trials at high altitudes of 15,000 feet in extreme temperatures of -20°C. During the tests, the system showcased exceptional performance, achieving a 30 cm scatter at a 400-meter target while effectively detecting and neutralizing aerial and ground threats. The KATANA features full 360-degree pan and ±70-degree tilt capabilities, allowing it to engage both stationary and moving human or vehicle targets with ATGMs and MMGs.

These trials were conducted to evaluate the operational effectiveness of the HITMAN in diverse combat scenarios. The vehicle's ability to function reliably under extreme conditions and deliver precise targeting marks a major advancement in autonomous warfare technology.

With the successful completion of these tests, Gridbots Technologies has reinforced its position as a leader in India's defense innovation sector. The ZEUS HITMAN’s demonstrated capabilities are expected to pave the way for further development and potential deployment in military operations, showcasing India's growing expertise in autonomous military technologies.
