Overview

AM General, best known for the Humvee, unveiled an unmanned ground vehicle demonstrator at AUSA Global Force in March 2026, developed together with Carnegie Robotics, Textron and Moog. The wheeled, teleoperated platform is built around a Moog RIwP (Reconfigurable Integrated-weapons Platform) turret carrying a 30mm cannon with 115 ready rounds plus 7.62mm and .50 caliber machine guns, and is described as compatible with a wide range of additional payloads including Stinger and Coyote air-defense missiles, APKWS guided rockets, and Hellfire and Javelin anti-armor missiles. It is powered by a 6.5L V8 engine producing about 250 hp and over 550 lb-ft of torque, and can carry up to about 2,722 kg of payload. No formal model name has been published; a US Army request for proposals for this class of vehicle is expected in 2026, so the platform is recorded as announced rather than fielded.

Autonomy & control

How the platform moves, how much it does without an operator, and how far the control link reaches.

Autonomy & control specifications
Locomotion

How the platform moves: tracked, wheeled or legged. Tracks suit soft ground and heavy payloads, wheels favor road speed and range, legs handle stairs and rubble. Not a ranking, a trade-off.

Wheeled
Autonomy level

How much the platform does without an operator, as the manufacturer describes it. Vendors do not use a common standard, so this is a coarse editorial bucket, not a certified rating.
