Battlesuite

The interoperable military ecosystem of the future

Modern conflicts are multifunctional, multidimensional and scalable challenges. Rheinmetall therefore proposes a multi-layer approach for interconnected and digitalised combat operations of the future. This integrative concept encompasses human intelligence and creativity as well as artificial intelligence, conventional weapon systems and unmanned systems. A core element for interconnecting all actors and systems is Rheinmetall’s new Battlesuite. The new digital platform for networked military systems is designed to enable armed forces to conduct operations with superior effectiveness. 

The ability to interconnect conventional weapon systems with unmanned systems creates a synergistic effect that brings together the best of both worlds – the precision and flexibility of unmanned systems and the robustness and versatility of conventional systems. This enables holistic warfare, in which each system complements the respective strengths of the others and relieves the human operator. Rheinmetall’s Battlesuite is a core element of this concept. The Battlesuite acts as a central hub for data flow and decision-making, supported by state-of-the-art AI, powerful network architecture and robust cyber security protocols.

The Battlesuite is based on blackned’s Tactical Core – basically the operating system – and cleverly expands it with a theoretically infinite number of available or future applications, similar to the app architecture of a smartphone. The Battlesuite integrates both, products developed in-house by Rheinmetall and applications from strategic partners. This combination creates synergies and guarantees a wide range of possible applications to meet specific operational requirements. The result is a modular yet robust infrastructure that is both, forwards-looking and powerful. 

The Rheinmetall Battlesuite enables different users to exchange information in real time, thereby generating a constantly updated picture of the military situation. All units on the battlefield have access to the same information, which significantly improves their decision-making capabilities. More resource-efficient use of existing systems allows decisions to be made faster and with greater precision. Time, materials and personnel are used optimally, while the effectiveness of operations is increased. Digitalisation and networking not only strengthen operational flexibility, but also sustainability in resource planning and utilisation. 

Rheinmetall proudly joined NATO’s REPMUS and Dynamic Messenger 2025 exercises in Portugal, showcasing  joint operations in live tests with cutting-edge autonomous technologies across land, air, and sea, ranging from advanced command-and-control systems to mission-ready UxVs – all systems seamlessly integrated via the Battlesuite!

Rheinmetall demonstrated interoperability, innovation and maritime security, as well as its expertise in the areas of mission management, sensor integration and secure data exchange.
