Rheinmetall Mission Master A-UGVs: a unique family of dependable allies for soldiers

The Rheinmetall Mission Master family

A pioneering line of autonomous uncrewed ground vehicles

The Rheinmetall Mission Master is a unique family of Autonomous Uncrewed Ground Systems (A-UGSs) designed to support military troops in dangerous missions, difficult terrain, and hostile weather conditions. On top of being valuable for reconnaissance and surveillance operations, the Mission Master platforms can be fitted for tactical overwatch, fire support, medical evacuation, CBRN detection, communication relay, and any other type of missions that may require the support of an A-UGS.

Each Mission Master vehicle is already networked with both Rheinmetall’s soldier system and the Rheinmetall Command and Control Software, which are compatible in any user’s battle management system.

Dependable allies for soldiers

Compact and stealthy

The Rheinmetall Mission Master SP2 is the next-generation of low-profile A-UGS engineered to provide assistance and reduce danger to dismounted soldiers in a wide range of missions, including high-risk situations.

Developed with the feedback from allied forces, including stealthy battery-powered for high moblity dismounted operations in complex terrain. Field tested in numerous international trials, Mission Master SP2 has more advanced amphibious capabilities. Its multi-domain capability makes it fit for multi-domain environments moving seamlessly from sea to land operations.

Compact volume and total mobility

The Rheinmetall Mission Master CXT2 is a rugged autonomous UGS (A-UGS) designed to accompany troops in all kinds of missions, especially in challenging environments. With its extreme-terrain mobility, hybrid propulsion, and amphibious capabilities, the Mission Master CXT2 reliably and silently transports heavy payloads in even the most unforgiving conditions. In the most difficult of situations, it remains capable of transporting its full payload capacity of 1000 kg.

Robust and highly reliable in the field, the Mission Master CXT2 combines the power of a diesel engine with a silent electric motor, providing a total range of 450 km without refueling (including 50 km on batteries). Its integrated lithium-ion batteries facilitate silent missions and are built to work in extreme hot or cold conditions. Thanks to its compact footprint, this A-UGS can be transported by internal load inside a range of aircraft, including the CH-47, CH-53, and C-130, as well as inside commercial aircraft.

Highly mobile and powerful

The Rheinmetall Mission Master XT2 is a rugged A-UGS designed to accompany troops on all missions, especially especially in harsh environments such as the arctic and extreme terrain. With its total mobility and powerful engin, the Mission Master XT2 reliably transports payloads of up to 1000 kg in even the most unforgiving conditions.

Engineered to sustain, the Mission Master XT2 can take your mission further. It can travel up to 750 km without refuelling and integrated batteries facilitate silent watch operations for several hours at a time. Robust enough to handle platoon or company sensors and weapon systems, the Mission Master XT2 enables units to increase their range and firepower with heavier-calibre weapons and larger optics.

A modular design for all platforms

Extremely versatile, Rheinmetall Mission Master A-UGSs can perform any mission profiles using a wide variety of modular payloads. Each module comes on a sturdy plate, preconfigured and ready to be bolted and plugged into the base platform within minutes. Any specific requirements of the client can be fulfilled with Rheinmetall’s made-to-order A-UGS solution.

The Mission Master family owes its autonomous navigation and driving functions to Rheinmetall PATH. Rheinmetall Canada’s AI‑enabled autonomy kit developed in Canada, provides perception, navigation, and decision‑making across complex, GPS‑degraded, and contested environments. PATH is platform‑agnostic and has been demonstrated on more than 40 wheeled and tracked vehicles, enabling autonomous navigation, leader‑follower convoy operations, and dynamic obstacle avoidance in dense terrain, littoral zones, and harsh climates.

PATH enables continuous modernization of existing fleets, powering vehicles to operate in uncrewed mode and freeing up soldiers for other duties while keeping them out of danger. This technology provides a wide range of teleoperation options for PATH-enabled vehicles, including a tablet, soldier system, and single-hand controller. These devices enable full access to advanced PATH features, such as follow-me, convoy, and autonomous navigation modes. Each control mode incorporates multiple layers of protection to ensure that the vehicle always operates safely. Moreover, Rheinmetall is committed to keeping a human in the loop in all kinetic operations, assuring that it is never a machine that decides when to open fire. Rheinmetall PATH has an open, flexible architecture, meaning it will rapidly integrate continuous innovations as artificial intelligence technologies evolve.
