Overview
RoBattle (ELA-6681) is IAI's diesel-powered 6x6 articulated unmanned ground combat vehicle, in IAI's catalogue since 2016 with no publicly reported fielding to date. Gross vehicle weight including payload runs to about 7,000 kg, with a 3,000 kg cargo payload capacity, and the chassis can optionally be fitted with tracks in place of wheels for softer terrain. IAI markets it as a modular robotic kit rather than a fixed configuration: customers can fit manipulator arms, ISR sensors, radars and remotely controlled weapons, but IAI does not publicly name a specific weapon station as standard. IAI's current product materials publish no dimensional, speed, range or control-range figures for RoBattle, so this record is intentionally spec-thin rather than filled with estimates. Note also that RoBattle is an IAI product, not Elbit Systems, a mix-up that appears occasionally in secondary reporting.
Full specifications
Physical
Dimensions, weight and crew.
| Combat weight Fully loaded weight. Lighter eases transport and bridging limits; heavier often means more armor. | 7,000 kg |
|---|---|
| Crew Personnel required to operate. Fewer reduces exposure; autoloaders trade a loader for mechanical complexity. | 0 |
| Cargo payload Maximum cargo the transport can carry. Higher means more lift per sortie. On an unmanned ground vehicle, this is the maximum mission payload the platform carries, including a weapon station. | 3,000 kg |
Autonomy & control
How the platform moves, how much it does without an operator, and how far the control link reaches.
| 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 |
